From what I can tell there is no significant difference. That being said, I for some reason prefer playing with the 6061. I honestly couldn’t tell you why. Maybe it’s just a mental thing, I don’t know. ---

you’re shots are immaculate! I assume you used a big mirror on the floating shot or just a good ol photoshop? ---

I really need to step out of my comfort zone to take pics like this or with staged photos, I’m usually just taking photos in a bare lightbox just getting only the subject of the yoyo and ignoring the background. I think if you did this at an angle, and zoomed in more it would add a little more character, the bareness is nice though. ---

A few I used my camera on, capturing yo-yos on a camera is a lot harder than I thought.
