new camera!!!

So for those of you who have been waiting for pics of my fishies for years, I finally got a digital camera!! Yay!!!!! (thanks Santa!!!)

Here's some random pics I took outside my house. Plus the one and only fish pic I've gotten so far where the fish didn't move about 5 feet while I took the pic. It's still kinda blurry though.

EDIT: ok having some difficulties resizing pics....will post others once I get it figured out......

They will get nervous for awhile while they get used to seeing a camera. I remember mine being nervous too. They just dont know what it is yet... lol.

Good luck with it, you will have a blast with the video cam!

You'll have little camera hams before you know it. I swear my oscar likes to pose. The Emperor Tetras still take off. Skittish little things. lol Well congrats on the new camera. Can't wait to see some more pics. I recommend a program called Irfan View for resizing photos. You can get it free here

Super easy to use. Just click resize/resample under Image and pick your size. 800X600 is what I usually use. Have fun!

Another program I use is "Image Converter One". It's a free program that can resize, convert file types and add watermarks. I like how I can add a whole folder to the list and process all my files at once.

Can get it from download.com and search for the program name noted above.

I don't think I could stand having no snow ever. Here's another pic I took of it snowing yesterday, so you can pretend you're watching snow out the window.

Ok the promised fishy pics. I'm still working on my platys and bettas but here's some of the catfish and shrimp.

Pic 1= Bamboo shrimp (Jewel) plus female Corydoras habrosus (Comet)
Pic 2= Oto (Mist) with Jewel's head in the corner
Pic 3= male habrosus (starlight) (never mind I'll post it later, accidentally cropped it too small so have to re-upload it to the computer)

Sorry the pics are a bit dark, didn't want to use the flash (click on the thumbnails to see the pics better). And excuse the slightly cloudy water, I'm starting to get an algae bloom again (shouldn't have put the tank so close to a window )

Couldn't find other Oto Marble or any of the pygmy cories so haven't got pics of them yet.

well, i grew up in florida so no snow is normal to me. I had more snow sitting on the car yesterday than my hometown's seen in my lifetime and then some.

pics are looking excellent, how many MP is that camera?
