phil.c Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 (edited) Yes, I agree, modelling has to be seen for what it is, but as I said "Just a bit of fun" When I add these pictures to Pen Y Bryn I alway post the original model shots.

KNP Posted August 10, 2020 Author Share Posted August 10, 2020 Absolutely, I will only be adding smoke/fog as and when I get the urge to do so. Did some awhile ago using a different method but never with much success. Rest assured resolute followers I will not be going all arty on you, well never say never! 3 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrWolf Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 As children a derelict place like that would have been a magnet. It looks so like the places that were everywhere before every barn and shed became a des Res. I would have been straight in that old box van looking for interesting bits of junk. I remember being about 14 and finding an old Cymota attached to a Hercules bicycle in the outbuildings of a house being demolished. One of the lads from school who had come with us said: "What the #### do you want that old thing for?" My mate replied: "You watch, he'll be down here on a motorbike tomorrow". He wasn't quite right, it was early the next week, thanks to my great uncle showing me how to split and reassemble the crankshaft. 7 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil.c Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 I always use the lowest ISO to minimise grain, I also focus stack when needed. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KNP Posted August 12, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted August 12, 2020 (edited) Squadron Leader out and about today, just pottering around in his RE8 in cool of the early morning air.... Swooped in low to catch the derelict house and grounds before flying off down the valley. I say, do my eye deceive me or is that Stan Dare , local artist, leaning on the fence by the signal.
