Creation Moment 1/3/2015 - --SO --

"Fossilized rod and cone cells — the kinds that help people see — have been discovered for the first time, researchers say.
The finding reveals that such eye cells have existed for at least 300 million years, and that the ancient fish they were discovered in likely saw in color, according to the study's scientists.
Human vision depends on pigments that absorb light. These pigments lie inside cells known as rods and cones. Cones are sensitive to color and also help perceive fine detail and rapid changes. Rods are more sensitive to light than cones, but are not sensitive to color, and are responsible for peripheral and night vision. Both rods and cones are found in a layer of tissue in the back of the eye known as the retina.
Myllokunmingia ...this creature may have possessed a rudimentary cameralike eye, which suggests vision dates back at least 520 million years. However, much remains unknown about the evolution of vision, since the soft tissue of the eye usually decays rapidly after death.
To learn more about the evolution of vision, scientists analyzed an exceptionally well-preserved 300-million-year-old fossil specimen of a fish called Acanthodes bridgei. The fossil was excavated from Kansas and is kept at the National Museum of Nature and Science in Tokyo." LiveScience

"They" found a creature with intact color vision. "They" are surprised.....why?
As a creationist, I have to say that the SCIENCE fits with a DESIGNER-- And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth,
 which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind,
