RMweb Gold Ralf Posted January 25, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 25, 2021 I do like the way the yard lights have created bright and dark patches - like yard lights do... Is the illumination just from the lights seen in the picture? I hadn't really considered after dark lighting in my current project - and it'd only be a few poxy sodium lamps but impressed with you pic.

Ralf The lighting in these photos are only the LED strip above the layout and then the floodlights on the depot when in use. In the room it's stored in there is an overhead room light but it doesn't effect the pictures when they're on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I didn't make it clear I meant the night shot of the 158, guessing the layout overhead LEDs are just turned right down to allow the model flood lights to shine?

Thanks They're turned off when I took that photo. The only lights on in the room were the flood lights on the depot and then a lamp that's in the corner of the room giving off a very small amount of light that actually hit the layout. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
