      Roger, thank you but he has been done buy two other channels in the same vaine if you do a search you'll see but I wasn't too concerned about that because you can only do your own thing. I didn't watch the other interpretations but just enjoy doing my feelings and I liked Roald extremely I would love to met him. Rena is backing in Grease where she lives. Interesting about using my Android phone, I didn't have a gimbal so it was extremely basic so I have to consider which is best ? You would think the gimbal wide focus but this was shot with nothing but the phone. I'll put this up as a pole tomorrow. See which people think is the best. Should be interesting 🤔 thanks for the thinking. See you soon Roger.
