a little boredom relief about photos

Last season I was coming in from Dux to Stinson in the dark and had a nice lightning storm break out


So I was out there trying to figure out how to get snaps of it and later on posted the question here. This is a testament to how dull-witted I am, it just occurred to me that my Pentax Optio WP takes short movies w sound

If I'd have thought of that then I would've had some nice footage of coastguard helicopters flying formation looking for a kayak with lightning cracking in the background. What a dumbs--t, I probably shouldn't admit this publicly.


Just thinking of ways to enhance the possible upcoming salmon season 

The Optio is a great camera. I really like when my wife forgets to take it out of movie mode and thinks it is still in picture mode. You get some interesting footage that way. 

I of course would never do this! 

Bill, that's a superb idea and my wife is gonna love you for this

She's a sleep talker which is amusing as hell to watch. Now I can get it on camera, maybe show it at our next dinner party

....that would be a big negative on your WAF points.....I would think 

Yeah but it'd make for great party entertainment

I'll probably have to hide my favorite salmon rods for a while

I just wish I could figure out how to get little mpegs posted...I think it woud be very fun.
