  An undated handout photo obtained on July 15, 2010 shows a deep-sea red jellyfish Atolla, as scientists from the Queensland Brain Institute, using high-tech cameras, photographed sea creatures at a depth of over 1000 metres at the Osprey Reef in the Coral Sea, some 350km northeast of the northern Australian city of Cairns. The sea creatures, which live in a dark world where the pressure is 140 times greater than on land, were well adapted to their environment and team leader professor Marshall said, 'Learning more about these creatures' primitive eyes and brain could help neuroscientists better understand human vision. We could also design better cameras and illumination systems because, as we've seen, nature often gets there first.'©AFP PHOTO/QUEENSLAND BRAIN INSTITUTE/Justin Marshall
