Very informative. Excellent demonstration/explanation. Self-explanatory samples. Very helpful. Enjoy your humor. You make learning fun. Thanks a bunch.

You explain it so well. You're an amazing teacher and this was a fantastic video. Thank you. I'm always learning. Always! Aperture priority is my favorite choice setting. Rarely shoot any other way.

That cinder block in the pool thing was gangster. If you pause at 0:06 you can see the look on Jays face as he throws you in his pool with cement around your ankles.

I also love to shoot macro imagery hand held because my choices are often spontaneous based on lighting or captivating my attention.
