Yes they were taken underwater except for the first pic. Here is a night shot of that one, a little closer.

Very impressive and surprising for a compact. Well done!

Cool Camera... it takes nice pictures and you can take it swimming

We have that cam... the older model... excellent for snorkeling. I havent yet tried it out in my tanks, I might just have to do that!

This is my little friend Elvis.

He is a Discordipinna Griessingeri (spike-fin goby), which have the reputation to be very shy and secretive (...if I was only an inch small, I would be hide a lot too).

He was friendly enough to sit on my Yumas and pose a little. I had to decide between staring at him in awe or grab the camera quickly.
I decided to run and when I came back he was still waiting for me
I had no time to fiddle with my settings though...oh, and of course the camera had to zoom in on the algae spots on my glass, too....

Very cool fish. I've wanted one for awhile but I have no desire to take care of a nano tank. Hummm.... maybe some day I'll plumb in a 30g to my two 230g tanks.
