RBE Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I think the only real way to get good photos is an SLR with a big F stop in N. I haven't bothered getting mine out yet to try instead just using my phone which has a cracking camera on it but all the photos I have taken are in poor evening light so have ended up needing a big ISO and hence grainy pics. Video is a different beast and I would think that you are restricted to the capabilities of the video camera there with regard to focus. I think the ones you have above are good focus wise though, bit grainy due to the ISO I'm assuming but fine I reckon. Cav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 At last the Video has downloaded, I have played around with the CV's since I filmed this so the stop/start is a lot better than on here, as I said the film quality is NOT GOOD but you get the idea.

RMweb Premium Jason T Posted April 22, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 22, 2013 It's looking fantastic Andy; can't believe how much you have achieved in such a short time, and to a high level of quality. p.s.

I preferred the green to the blue Hi Jason, I have gone the same way in OO, 2 years ago I had Kingsmill and then built Deesdale Road, both in Modern Image, then I went into the Blues with Glen Roy and Loch Leven and now I have some 30 plus Midland / Eastern Region / GCR Steam and Green Diesels ready for my next project on OO. If I am not careful I will be doing Pre-Grouping in T Gauge next, but don't tell Jeff. hahaaa :no: :no: :no: Bodgit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 THE WATER HAS STARTED :no: :no: I have done a coat of light Grey/Blue with some white along the shoreline, I then gave it a couple of coats of PVA, I have since given it a bit of Green / Brown in places. and another coat of PVA, I will post some pics when the next coat of PVA has dried a bit and it doesn't look like I have just dropped a pint of milk all over the layout. The Waterfall is coming on nicely with some bits of white in the rocky gully and the PVA is giving it a nice sheen. Pics tomorrow possibly.

Andrew P Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 The last time I was there, there were idiots in little plastic ships and only one paddle and a crash helmet, trying to go between dangly bits hanging from string above the water, AND they were getting wet AND it wasn't even raining. I always said the Welsh were mad. (not all of them of course) :no: Bodgit. thinking about it they were probably ENGLISH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RBE Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I still maintain that you never should have winged it on Millwood and gone for the genius that I originally design for you haha. Im sure the new one will be cracking mate. Cav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
