PHOTO FUN week of 3/22/07

[TomPM]

I finished adding trees and foliage to Drexel Ridge

If you look closely you might see some glue drying.

 

[TomPM]

I also added some more to the Cement Distributor.

In the back I added the guy with the wheel barrow and some more pallets.

At the office I added some people.

[MadHatter]

Deano- Love the waterfall behind the loco scene.
Chessie4155- Nice night footage.
Nazgul- Looks like they wanted to commit suicide, they are rowing for that waterfall.
Maybe they were trying to see how far they could make it at the bottom away from the waterfall.
CN- Nutbar love your shot.

[CNWman]

Hey Nazgul, are the people going AGAINST the river? I mean, it looks like the river is flowing away from the camera while the people are going towards it. The minor slope in the background looks like it's causing the river to go like it is, too. I'm confused

EDIT: nevermind, I see the people are going the right way. Just looked at the BRILIANLY done waves wrong hamr
