nice but you really need to up these to either a web page, or a binary groups so people
can see them, try alt,binaries.aquaria

not every news server d/l's binaries from non binary groups

Nice pics, a few suggestions:

Use a tripod to steady the camera so you can set a slower shutter speed and
a smaller f-stop, that will give more depth of field (more in-focus front to
back). Use the self-timer function on the camera to snap the photo so you
don't get any finger shake. Set the ISO to the lowest setting for you camera
(100 instead of Auto) that will give you a finer grain (just like real
film). Shut off all the pumps so there is no movement.
