the pool project
a few pictures from the kids cleaning out the pool at the house we're going to move to. soon.
there were loads of tadpoles and frogs - relocated.
then descaling
that umbrella is still there as there's a wasp nest in it...
after about a week, finally all done - just waiting for the sun to appear NOW that we want it!

Re: the pool project
The pool made quite the transformation, although green is a nice color too.
How long does it take to fill up something like that?

Re: the pool project
I bet you can do it while zoomed, but maybe not with auto-focus engaged. You may have to set it up manually with a fast shutter speed.

Re: the pool project
OK then, I don't have a lot of experience with phone cameras, but I suspect that the settings are done automatically. To me a 'sports mode' would mean something like f22 @ 1/1000 seconds set manually on my Nikon. Burst mode is ok in certain situations, but I'd guess shooting a video would be better at capturing a dive. You can pick out the frame or two you like with a simple video editor.
Re: the pool project
right.
lol!
Re: the pool project
That's the opposite of what I thought pools should be, but hey. Whatever works for you is fine.
Re: the pool project
whatever the reason, i get leg cramps if i try to just get into cool, n/m cold water. trying to remedy it with magnesium and it helped, but i can still feel grumbling from down there. so until i get that sorted, bath water is just fine!
it's supposed to be hitting a 100 tomorrow, so i'm thinking we'll have soup stock in there by the afternoon... just add veggies.

Re: the pool project
This is crazy, but probably very true. You are swimming in 'cold' water.In general, hot water is 130 degrees Fahrenheit (54.4 Celsius) or above. Warm water is between 110 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit ( 43.3-32.2 Celsius). Cold water is generally between 80 and 60 degrees Fahrenheit (26.7-15 Celsius).
Re: the pool project
in fact, just right.
tomorrow will be warm, too, but then it's said to drop by about 15°. bring out the parkas!
