Micael Widell Newsletter #31
Captain's log
October was a pretty regular month for me. Not too boring, not too exciting. I made a Q&A video to celebrate 60 000 subscribers on youtube. I reviewed a smartphone macro lens. I tried videography as opposed to photography, to document an event in my life. I came up with a 5 step methodology to improve my photography style. I tried a Soviet macro lens. I tried a new photo sharing app for photographers. And I did a Patreon-only video with my best tips on how to sell and buy used gear.
That's about it :) This month's newsletter will be pretty short, as I am late with it and have lots of other work to attend to – I will just leave you with some inspiring and beautiful photos that I have found recently. Enjoy!

More NFTs
Besides my collection on OpenSea, I have also started minting NFTs on Foundation.app and on HEN. I want to try different marketplaces to learn, and to see what works best for me. I might make a followup video later on all my NFT business and what I have learned – I still spend quite a bit of time each week in the NFT world. I also have an NFT-focused account on Twitter.
