The Pentax W30 has an impressive interval shot mode that I wish a.) more cameras had built-in and b.) went less than 10 seconds in between shots.

This turtle came to investigate the camera-on-a-string. I actually think it was trying to bite the bobbers.

First try "fishing" with the camera on some 100lb dacron line in paradise creek on my lunch break. No floater so the camera sinks either face-first or facing up. Neither are optimal, but there aren't any fish in paradise creek anyway so it didn't matter, but I did get some nice shots of the bottom scum looking up!

I went fishing in the UI Arboretum with my new Pentax W30 waterproof camera (graduation present from the old man -- thank you!!)

I didn't expect to catch much, but I guess the fish are pretty curious and swam right up to the lens!
