    That cannot be Wisconsin...where is the cheese or protestors? I am joking. That looks great! Did you take the photo outside?

    I took it inside against a white wall that was 4 feet behind it. I added the sky detailing afterwards.

    I actually need to haul the modules outside for some better daylight photos at some point. Thanks for the kind words.

    Your scenery is really coming along nicely! When did you do all this work on it?
    ...or have I just been to busy with homework that I never found any construction photos?

    Oh, and I've never heard of the ".R .R .T & .V" or an engine called "ERIPME". I'm guessing you flipped the image:tb-biggrin:sdrawkcab si gnirettel eht lla esuaceB

    But if he didn't do that, Tom, the shadows would all be reversed. :D

    A group shot of some of my new locos. From left to right: a Kato JNR C62 4-6-4, a Tomix JR EF66, a Tomix JR ED75 and a Kato Rio Grande PA-1.

    Sorry for the photo quality. I'm just learning the ropes of my new D-SLR.

    No problem with the photo quality. It's certainly a nice photo, IMHO. Those cameras have so many functions it takes a while to learn them all. I have a three year old Nikon 5000 and I can only do the things that I need to do with it. The camera still is beyond me.

    I need to get a second light to brighten up the photo and I need to work on the depth of field, too.

    you can also use a sheet of paper as reflector. This will lighten up the dark parts.
    I use a 1000 W lamp beaming against the ceiling. This gives useful light.

    I'm using one daylight balanced photo fluoresent bulb to light everything. I really need a second one. I used a sheet of white foam core board behind the locos to reflect some light back.
