Ok, I'll put this out there for ideas. On this last trip, we had a bit of an accident with the camera. You can see from the sweater teaser pic that this photo set was taken pretty late in the evening. I was trying to photograph Jennifer from the front side as she waded into the ocean. I got a few pictures and then a big wave hit me from the back. Jennifer didn't see it coming either. I raised the camera up high when it hit, but it got a good hit of saltwater. It worked long enough to take some more picture, but hasn't worked since. I'm still hoping it will dry out, but really doubt it will ever turn on again. The problem is that this camera belongs to my mother. I've been using it for a while now but had to return it soon. I have to replace this camera before I can even think about getting one for ourselves. When we do get one, we'd like to get one with an underwater housing (gee, wonder why?). We've never charged anything for the pictures we've given to the community and are looking for help to get a camera because without it, the photos are done for a while. I've thought about ideas, but can't think of much that will help us to hide our identity easily except for one thing. I was thinking that it might work to have anyone wishing to make a donation towards the camera fund to give the donation to my paypal account (http://www.paypal.com) at tdouty@yahoo.com Does anyone have any other ideas or would anyone be willing to make a donation in this way? What are your thoughts? I was thinking that this might work because I could then use the Paypal funds to purchse a camera online.
