Hello, my name is Michael. I’ve been in the hobby off and on since I was little. Reefing has been a lifestyle for me for a long time. My passion is to create digital media for all of us to watch and enjoy. 😁

I’m more than happy to help! Are you taking pictures from your phone or a camera. It makes a huge difference. This will help me to help you better.😁

Actually, if you’ll be kind enough to start a build journal (wait - I should ask the admin to create a Photography forum?) that will be appreciated! I’ll just copy your equipment and techniques! Yes, I’m super lazy & not talented … I just do what others do..
