    They look like creatures from another planet, but these weird specimens are all marine life captured by talented underwater photographer Kei Nomiyama.

    In his photo series Blackwater, the 36-year-old presents the amazing creatures discovered in the sea at night.

    His work includes the quirky sight of a 'jellyfish rider', a lobster larvae hitching a ride on a hapless jellyfish, and the Phronima Sedentaria, a species of amphipod crustacean, that Kei says reminds him of the sci-fi film 'Aliens'.

    Kei explains: "I live in Matsuyama city at Shikoku island, smallest of the four main islands in Japan. I mainly take these photos at Omi-island in Yamaguchi-prefecture. The Omi-island is located in the south of the main island of Japan and facing the Sea of Japan.

    Top Guns: The Best U.S. Air Force Pictures of 2013

    These stunning images show a year in the life of the largest air force in the world.

    The United States Air Force has operations all over the world and enlisted photographers are there to capture the action.

    The service's specialist Airman magazine has curated the most impactful imagery from 2013 for a special issue entitled 'Year in Visuals'.

    As would be expected, the gallery features awesome images of aircraft, but there are also personal military stories including a striking image of Capt. Candice Adams Ismirle preparing for cancer radiation treatment, while Staff Sgt. Ron Blodgett is shown in tears as he embraces his son after returning from a deployment in Southwest Asia.

    Managing editor Tech. Sgt. Chris Powell explains: "We pride ourselves on publishing the powerful imagery and videos Air Force photographers and broadcasters produce every day. These professionals travel the world, sometimes putting themselves in harm's way, to bring you the visual story from an Airman's perspective.

    "Our goal is to make you feel as close to the story as possible, being right there with Airmen providing security in Afghanistan, a team of Airmen hiking the highest mountains on Earth or showcasing the Air Force's many aircraft conducting operations throughout the world."

    Wandering albatross (Diomedea exulans) on the wing at sunset approaching South Georgia Island, Southern Atlantic Ocean. The Wandering Albatross has the largest wingspan of any living bird, with the average wingspan being 3.1 metres (10.2 ft). The longest-winged examples verified have been about 3.7 m (12 ft), but probably erroneous reports of as much as 5.3 m (17.5 ft) are known. As a result of its wingspan, it is capable of remaining in the air without beating its wings for several hours at a time (travelling 22 metres for every meter of drop). The length of the body is about 1.35 m (4.4 ft) with females being slightly smaller than males, and they weigh typically from 6 to 12 kg (13-26 lb). Immature birds have been recorded weighing as much as 16.1 kg (35 lb) during their first flights. The plumage varies with age, but adults have white bodies with black and white wings. Males have whiter wings than females with just the tips and trailing edges of the wings black. They feed on squid, small fish and on animal refuse that floats on the sea, eating to such excess at times that they are unable to fly and rest helplessly on the water.

    Reflected sunlight on king penguin (Aptenodytes patagonicus) breeding and nesting colonies on South Georgia Island, Southern Ocean. King penguins are rarely found below 60 degrees south, and almost never on the Antarctic Peninsula. The King Penguin is the second largest species of penguin at about 90 cm (3 ft) tall and weighing 11 to 16 kg (24 to 35 lb), second only to the Emperor Penguin. King penguins eat small fish, mainly lanternfish, and squid and rely less than most Southern Ocean predators on krill and other crustaceans. On foraging trips they repeatedly dive to over 100 meters (350 feet), often over 200 meters (700 feet). This is far deeper than other penguins, other than their closest relative, the larger Emperor penguin. King Penguins breed on the subantarctic islands at the northern reaches of Antarctica, as well as Tierra del Fuego, South Georgia, and other temperate islands of the region. The total population is estimated to be 2.23 million pairs and is increasing. The King Penguin was described in 1778 by English naturalist and illustrator John Frederick Miller, its generic name derived from the Ancient Greek a 'without' pteno- 'able to fly' or 'winged' and dytes/ 'diver'.Its specific epithet patagonicus derived from Patagonia.

    LIGHTNING ON THE HIGH SEAS

    A life on the high seas with the US Navy can mean adventure and exotic ports of call, but being in the middle of the ocean can leave you at the mercy of the elements.

    And these jaw-dropping images show what lightning looks like from the deck of a warship.

    Military photographers Jon Husman and Elliott Fabrizio captured the brilliant bolts of electricity as witnessed from the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis on a scheduled six-month deployment to the western Pacific Ocean.

    While Todd A. Schaffer shot a storm over the Norfolk navy base in Virginia.

    The Happiest Swimmer in the Ocean
    **MANDATORY CREDIT GARY FLORIN/REX FEATURES**

    THE HAPPIEST SWIMMER IN THE OCEAN

    The credit has crunched, the weather is cold, but nothing can wipe the smile from this little fellow's face.

    Called a Piglet Squid, this sea creature always looks cheerful thanks to what appears to be a huge grin.

    About the size of a small orange, the squid - Latin name Helicocranchia pfefferi - can commonly be found in deepwater (greater than 100m) in most of the world's oceans.

    But this cute chap is more distinctive than most thanks to pigments which dot its skin - making it seem like the happiest swimmer in the ocean.

    Scientists gave it the name thanks to its tuft of eight arms and two tentacles on its 'head', as well as its habit of looking porky when inflated with water.

    Its body is almost totally clear revealing a dark mass that is the internal organs and barely visible, feather-like gills. It also has a large light producing organ (photophore) beneath each of its eyes.

    The picture was taken by California's Cabrillo Marine Aquarium. CMA Director Mike Schaadt says: "Our photographer Gary Florin took a marvellous picture of this rarely seen yet fairly common member of the deep sea plankton community. The angle Gary took the picture at makes it look comical."
