New camera fun
Well since my tank is sitting dry and I can't experiment with tank lighting pics, I've been taking shots of Christmas lighting pics 
My husband has a village of very small houses, not even to HO scale, that has been in his family for 50 years and which he displays every Christmas. This year it's on top of our entertainment center has we no longer have a mantelpiece.
Here's Main Street:

What???
None of the houses have that chintzy actinic-blue glow
coming through the windows!
Sacrilege, woman... sacrilege.
Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones, Alice.

I bought a Fuji Finepix A210. It's a 3.2 megapixel with a 3X optical zoom and a 3.2 digital zoom. It will also do the little movies as well as has macro mode. It was on sale for $199 and with the free gift card and a rebate I only paid $150 for it. I bought it for myself as a Christmas present It's not a top of the line camera but I could afford this one!
