I checked the YouTube site and started to open an account, but I think I have a Google account already (probably needed it to get onto NT) and forgot the password. I'll try tomorrow to see if that's the case and will let you know.
I have shared videos via e-mail and text messages -- all taken with my iPhone -- and recently discovered that some are too long to send. If I can post to Youtube, I can take videos with my cameras and embed them on NT. I hope to do so soon -- there are quite a few subjects/locations I regularly photograph and it will be a new challenge to see what I can do with them via video.
Wouldn't think of shooting off of a tripod; I'm going to read up on shooting video with my Nikon 610 and practice panning.
I was never really interested in video but this past weekend met up with a 400-600 pound black bear and had the presence of mind to photograph him with my iPhone; I tried to share the video via e-mail and text but kept getting "too long to send" messages.
I don't want to clip (shorten) it and I asked Perrie about the alternatives -- which is how we got on the subject of YouTube. So, hopefully, I will be able to post it and subsequent videos on NT.
I realize from Buzz's comment, that he is unable to access YouTube and that's a bummer since not being able to share with a good friend makes me unhappy. Maybe there are other formats for him. I hope so.
As for "patience," over time, as with many situations, in photographing "living" subjects, one observes that most species have recurring behaviors that can be anticipated and become queues. I think the real "patience" is in observing and learning those queues and becoming ever-ready when the butterfly or deer, etc. show up.
600 pound Black Bears and other such critters come with an asterisk for obvious reasons.
Hopefully, tomorrow will bring more.
Damn, you get all the beautiful ones....
Nice shots brother...
Just great photos, and such beauty....Well done Mac.
You must have the patience of Job.
Of course Randy... he was a teacher!
Hey Mac... wonderful shot. Can even see the eyes on the butterfly. Looking forward to your movies!
You know what's the neatest thing? they are both shots of the same butterfly, different flowers...
I don't know how he gets them to sit for so long.....
My teachers must have been different.

'Course, there's all kinds of "bears."
The "Bear" Market
And Bears that make me say "WTF am I doing here?"
A Mac
Beautiful shots
Thanks for sharing
If there is a way to get it to me I'll post it, buzz will be able to see it at that point.
This is not a problem with short videos I can e-mail them to you now it's those longer than a minute or longer than can't be sent that way.
But let me do a bit of learning and then we'll work on the logistics.
