I showed this to Bill and he laughed and then said, We outta do that!

ah, well, ain't the cops in YOUR employ, lil Queenie? I imagine they'd look the other way, or at least salute/bow as you pass, riiiiiiiiggggghhhhtttt???

Some are,some aren't, and the ones that aren't seem to disappear and I just don't know why

Ah not nice for that cold germ to try and mess w/you @Gemma
Looks like you are killing that germ to me!
Hope you feel better soon.
You got a bad camera or something? Or do they not show up real good through the screen? Will go look for them.

I took some more ugly pics of my beautiful koi I might post somewhere on here

Yikes! Hope yours doesn't last as long as mine did (about 3 weeks, with a fourth still coughing a bit)! Take care and make sure you're getting the appropriate TLC, hey? SOMEONE should be waiting on you hand and foot!!

or...

is your phone waterproof? Could just put out some food and hold the phone underwater for a few minutes; there, instant un-ugly pics of your koi!!!

@Gemma Colleen on GPF used to use her cell phone in a jar and lower it down into the water and got some good shots I remember.

just puts a new perspective on the hobby and imo, interesting for sure! That's why I spent a ton of time fixing the diy wp cam housing!

@brokensword it was way worth it for you as you have such pretty angle fish

it IS different seeing them from the side, like in an aquarium. But I like seing even just plain goldfish this way, too. You get an approximation when looking from the top and you'll notice with koi, they ALWAYS show/sell you koi from that camera angle. May have to tap into the CAstle funds to get you a wp phone or cam; I think you'd have fun taking UW pics, too! I think one of my new pet projects is going to be promoting pond video! In and out of the water!

No cam for me, sorry, my fish are not pretty, just bright orange beasts and some have lumps on them
They are my wet pets and I love them so don't get me wrong, just not photogenic!

How do you click the button to take the shot?

She does all video's so just turns it on and leaves it down there awhile and then drags it up.
You could tie a rope to it also and move it around slowly to see the spots you want to in the pond.
I wonder if my hubby would allow me to do a test w/his cellphone as I don't have one.
I am betting he won't

LOL I make videos all the time! too bad after uploading the first one on GPF, I forgot how to...I'm technologically challenged, can't retain what I learn to save my life
