    Aeronautics engineer turned photographer hits another one out of the park - well done and helpful for aspiring pros. Mood board demo a plus. Text list focus bit quite clever - worth using consistently in vid such that 2nd and 3rd key tips would have been presented with others in the same manner as 1st item - relevant tip in focus, others fuzzy😊. Cheers!

    @@gerardneedhamIf by “fake” you mean you made them up, the numbers might still be valid for some parties. In that case there’s room for mischief😊. “Say, Martha, why are we getting all these calls for a photographer?”😂
