I hope she can be reunited with her people very soon :) I did get some great river rocks for painting at my brother's place last weekend . I want to go back and get some more of various sizes for other art projects :) Look forward to your next video :)

      There is much to be found in northern montana! Between the agates, crystals, and fossils, there's a little bit of everything up there! I have always wanted to go to Alberta; ammolite is one of my favorite things to search for so it is definitely one of my bucket list locations! We have great ammolite in Montana but nothing compares to Alberta ammolite!👍 glad you like the new rig! I will be adding to it in the coming weeks so the vids will hopefully keep getting better!😊

    I love watching your videos. I’d love to go to some of the areas you visit on my next Montana trip. There are rocks that you don’t collect that I would LOVE to collect. After watching one of your carving videos I’m inspired and plan to do some etching on a few of the larger stones I found near Missoula this past July. Thanks for sharing your adventures and being a great inspiration !!! Can’t wait to see more! Espresso
    Especially crystal park. I only just learned of that place in July but didn’t have time to go.

    • @TheoKellison
      @TheoKellison  4 года назад

      I love the gopro from a quality standpoint; it is extremely stable and takes great quality footage. The downside being that it can not do closeups very well, so you have to counteract that by using an additional camera for close shots (in this case, my phone). Definitely worth it though!

    • @TheoKellison
      @TheoKellison  4 года назад +1

      Same one! Its a great little camera! Of course i had it set to wide angle instead of linear the first day so it looks kind of like fish eye lense, but i quickly fixed that the next day😂 i am looking at getting a canon m50 as well and i think the two paired together is going to be an awesome combo! Only downside of the 7black is it is a bit awful at closeup shots, but that's kind of to be expected with any gopro

      @@406findings i used to use my macro on my t5 for closeups but now that that's gone i have been using my phone which definitely leaves much to be desired; it gets extremely grainy if i zoom too much, so a new camera is definitely in order.

      The gropro gets very high quality footage, but definitely does not do well at closeups. The next videos are better; i have to switch between cameras for wide shots and closeups, so it's a bit of a balancing act

    • @TheoKellison
      @TheoKellison  4 года назад

      That is heulandite! It is a fairly uncommon (in Montana, at least) zeolite mineral that forms very unique crystal structures and is typically white to pink, though shades of yellow are also common. It doesn't have much lapidary value but it absolutely makes for some unique and interesting specimens! Unfortunately that piece had so much going on in it that my camera had a very hard time focusing in on it😅 that should all change soon!

      I know🤦 of course i didnt find out until i got back from the trip and reviewed my footage. It has since been switched to 16:9 so all upcoming videos will be on the correct aspect ratio, but there wasn't anything i could do to correct it without cutting a bunch of footage. Gotta roll with the punches i guess (and check your dang settings BEFORE you record a six part series😂😂😂)
