Taken with the help of my new toy a photo flood. I think it's the best i've taken.

Nice pic Alan, could you tell us a little more about your 'Photoflood' ?

Lovely photos. The one with the Collett Goods the glimpse of the fireman is great, makes me want to see more of the action on the footplate. Lighting, colours and weathering look spot on to me. Mr Nevard watch out!

Look forward to more, Jon

I think the lighting makes a heck of a difference to the photos

Thanks chaps, Still experimenting though. at the moment I have the light very close to the subject which does put further parts of the layout in some shadow as all the rest of the lights in the room are off.

Don't melt 'em..!!!

One advantage of low energy light bulbs in the floodlight, 3 24 watt bulbs. give a light the equivalent to 300watts.

Back to the bridge. It's getting there. Stonework is DAS modelling clay, Parapet is Slaters 7mm stone.

As Bridge/wherry diorama is near enough finished I indulged myself this weekend by renumbering most of my steam fleet. Pic is of now 6829 Burmington Grange and 7916 Mobberly Hall both shedded at Newton Abbot.

For those who think the mast won't go through, ...

Guilty, M'Lud.... :-[

Talk about a tight loading gauge!! That's worse than the Hastings line!!!

Yes it is tight as you can see as Albion (one of the two ex-trading wherries left on the Broads) has just squeezed under Potter Heigham Bridge.
