    My macro has taken a backseat since I discovered good timelapses. I wish I could have done more macro.

    Joey, I've said before you have a true talent in the macro world and your work is definitely marketable, especially in the stock footage field. This is pretty damn hot stuff!!
  • Lucasberg 3 months ago
    Thanks Spud. If you know of a good Stock video place let me know. I'll see if I qualify.

    i work at a drive in theatre and when im out cutting the grass during the day there are a ton of preying mantis walkin around. i'm always careful not to hurt em. this vid reminded me of that!
