    Mr T,
    If you win, I guess you can blame me for giving you bad advice! :)

    Loco and bridge bloopers

    'Meeting at the twin bridges' didn't make the cut because it appears that had the camera angled making it look like the bridge in the background is sloped upward. It also really showed the seam where my two photo backdrops are joined. Too bad because this shot had the most accurate color.

    'Two viaducts' showed a little more detail of my layout, but I couldn't get the right angle to show both bridges and get the right background detail in the frame.

    Two things are evident. I need to spend more time learning all my camera's functions (Nikon L8). Things look different through the lens than they actually appear. A scene may look good to the naked eye, but it may take some effort to reproduce it on camera.

    Some of you guys are really good at creating photo scenes. I appreciate any advice you may want to offer.
