Chambered Nautilus (Nautilus Pompilius) - Found 600 meters below sea level these creatures are trapped and brought up for divers to observe and photograph. They are released and sink back down the wall to their home. I'm not entirely sure where I stand on this however I do know they were quite a sight and a bit difficult to photograph as the swayed back and forth while sinking into the abyss.
