I believe I've found a happy lighting balance. I have doubled the halogen fleet to 4 X 150 Watts, and turned the overhead lights off (flourescents). Three lamps face the layout from different angles, and one is bounced off a high tech, $1000 reflector (my white refrigerator). Also the shutter speed set to 2 secs is plenty long enough with 600 watts of light in the room, at F8.

The spring rains have caused some greens to crop up as well as a few stumps. I hope to get some stump pics posted tonight in Loggin'.

:D :D :D

There is a lot of photographic compression, giving an illusion of a much tighter curve than what is there. I havn't actually powered that section of track yet, but they do run on an even tighter curve on another area. There's a 4 or 5 inch radius over in Goreman's Brickery that most loco's can negoatiate. We also have a 25% grade :eek: :eek: :eek:
