Usually it's brown. I actually watched the water turn color in a few seconds I think it was the sun playing tricks.

Was that on Sat. or Sun. ?
We were on Pleasant on Sat. when that one rolled in. Crazy ! They said 13 boats either capsized or sunk during that storm. We were at the 10 lane and there was 1 boat capsized and one heavily damaged on the ramp (no trailer).
Its that time of year.

That was Saturday. On Bartlett it came in spurts, off and on. About two minutes before those pictures were taken I several waves roll right over my windshield and swamp the boat. I used my ballast pump to help my bilge out. Pretty much every boat came off the lake except the bass guys. We saw a guy in a red Allison Grande Sport with a 2.5 doing about 65 blasting straight through the waves. It was amazing, the smoothest boat I have ever seen. He just got on plane and blasted through everything.

Those were taken with a Canon S410 with the waterproof cover. It's a great boating camera, with the water proof cover I think it's good for 100' underwater.

Have you checked the settings? For some reason my goes to "junk" settings by default but when changed to more useable settings it's a completely different camera. How high was that picture taken from?

Maybe around 2500' It was taken with a Nikon digital not the Cannon.
