Creation Moment 12/24/2016 - Purple Creatures

Look at the diversity God even built into seafloor life..even colors like purple....
And God created ...every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind,
Genesis 1:21
 
"This purple stubby squid was filmed from an ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) off the E/V Nautilus while it explored the seafloor off the coast of California. It even had the researchers on board exclaiming excitedly when they came across the wide-eyed
cephalopod at a depth of 2,950 feet, the equivalent of eight football fields.
In the deep sea there’s not very much light. People tend to think that it’s completely dark down there, but there is light that’s produced by other organisms, so having big eyes lets you gather as much light as possible..... the cephalopod was likely frozen in fear of the enormous submersible looming in front of it, or else stunned by the bright lights being shined in its prominent peepers, like an underwater deer in headlights."
