Two years ago I added a web cam to my pond, so I can enjoy it from my
office. I move the camera around; under water, above water - looking
at the waterfall, etc. This winter I decided to leave the camera
underwater. I thought it would be interesting to see what life is like
for the fish under the ice, during our New England winter. I posted a
couple of pictures captured from the web cam for those interested:

The camera is a true waterproof color/black and white camera, with IR
illuminators. Purchased from Supercircuits for about $130:

I buried an extra conduit from the power post by my pond to the house
and ran coax video cable to my computer in my basement office. I use a
Hauppauge WinTV video capture card (about $49 at Circuit City) to
capture the video from the camera. I then use WebCam32 (from
www.surveyor.com for $40) to save still images locally (like a
security camera), FTP upload an image every 15 seconds to a webpage,
and act as a live webserver (so I can remotely view live streaming
video).

Those were very interesting to see! I sent your page to my ponding
friend in East Hempstead NY who is always wondering what her koi are
doing under all that ice.

The pictures are great, they make me feel cold just looking at them.
Thanks for the post.
I might try that ......... if ever my pond emerges from under the
snow. The squirrels have a tunnel through the snow, so I guess the
bubbler has kept a hole open for them to drink.
