   Your videos are great. Thanks for all your time and effort. Some people
   may not enjoy your side comments on camera or lens, but I think many of us
   appreciate the extra info.

   Hey Anthony,
   I understand what you are saying about the histogram. And I can’t remember
   if you mentioned this any earlier in the series… However, something that
   the histogram does in Lr is that you can also control the exposure areas
   that the basic panel controls (Blacks, Shadows, Exposure, Highlights, and
   Whites.) I like using it that way because, you can keep the histogram
   open, and close the basic panel, and work on then if you are working with a
   brush or gradient, or one of the other control panels, you can adjust the
   exposure controls without opening back up the basic panel.

   Tony, you are absolutely AWESOME and THANK YOU for sharing your knowledge.
   Wonderful to know that we are not all the same, me on the other hand,
   loves the contrast!

   Your vids are great, but there is one thing that I think you should do
   better. Try keeping focus on what your video is about. I came to learn
   about develop a Macro photo, not to hear you talk about all sorts of
   irrelevant things (such as your lens, how to find lens correction etc). Try
   to be a little more efficient. I get bored, and I don’t think I’m the only
   one. Don’t get me wrong, the vids have a lot of good information, but I
   searched for a specific topic for a reason.

   Very nice tutorial! Thnaks for all that information!!
   I have a question…isn’t that better to do the “masking” first and
   sharpening next, in order to be able to max a little more the sharpening?

   Tony: really a VERY nice video with lots of details on how to process macro
   photos. I went to the same Niagara falls butterfly farm but don’t remember
   if I brought my Tamrom macro lens. One quick question regarding these
   pictures: did you use a tripod? Thanks again for your amazing work!
