Me too Chuck. The water authority claims it is a rare, but natural bacteria called: purple sulfur bacteria ( in zwavelpurperbacteriën Dutch)

Hi Don, thanks, yes, the video was fully with the D7000. With tripod. Vital for good video with the D7000. (and a lot of re-focusing in picture mode and switching back to video to get the sharpest results)

Don, do you know any lenses that auto-focus in video mode? I shot a lot of soccer matches and auto-focus in video mode would make my life a lot easier!
