Hawaii -- day 2: Submerged! Nov 27th | filed in: News

I've got Point-and-shoot stuff to share from Hawaii Day 2!

I got a really fun camera before we left:
This Olympus Stylus.
It's a digital 8-megapixel point and shoot that shoots stills and video,
but the cool part is that it's WATERPROOF up to 10ft deep!


Mat and Rory were having a blast shooting videos of themselves
going down the hotel's waterslide and taking pictures underwater.

I'm excited to have a digital video/still camera that's compact and waterproof!
It's nothing like Jay Riley's waterproof stuff that he does with his big housings!,
but I can wear my waterproof camera as a necklace during the day.
Can you do that with yours, Jay??

Here's a video of Rory at the end of the slide,
then Rory twirling underwater, and Mat waving to the camera, all cheesey-like:


Here's a video that Rory shot herself, going down the slide:
(I think the raisin fingers in front of the lens are a nice 6yr-old touch)

email subscribers, go to the blog online to see the videos

Don't try this if your camera's not waterproof!


My project for the next few days is to gather enough pictures
to design a 2009 MPIX CALENDAR
I always have a hard time choosing a calendar every New Year,
but for 2009, I will make a calendar with pictures from our Hawaiian vacation,
and I know it will be stunning!
I just have to concentrate on composing my images to fit well in the calendar layout!
Wish me luck!
