RMweb Gold big jim Posted September 28, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 28, 2012 this looks a bit model like in my eyes nice little bonus for me just after midnight at tyseley, just walking back to the station and i thought "i can hear a class 60", walked back and sure enough 60011 was running round a train on the goods, terrible lighting to ge a shot from ground level buti wasn't letting it get away without a photo 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
definate maybe Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 There is something about the platform that definately looks model like to me. Not sure ifs the cleanliness or the way the light seems to make the brickwork look like model paper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichardJones Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 It's all about Depth of field, get it right and you can make just about anything look like a model! My favourite is a 30s shot of Abbey Foregate station on the Shropshire & Montgomeryshire which was shot evidently on a view camera because it uses the Tilt shift effect quite noticeably but to great effect.

Peter Kazmierczak Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 Cracking weathering on both of these. Think the Cl.58 could've done with a bit more though, to get that weathered "Toton" look. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin1985 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 It seems to be a pretty good judgement on the standard of our models if all it takes to make a real train look like a model is a high viewpoint and a shallow depth of field :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
