The Cambrian Coast Express

My DH collects model trains, somethings he even runs them. I bit like me and scrap booking supplies. The white background is a sheet on the kitchen table. I think I might need a macro lens though coz it was hard getting close enough with my lenses. The settings were basically copied from Barb Kelly's method, with a bit of modifying coz i was using my 17-85 f4 lens. Thanks Barb. I need to work on this more though as I still had to PP.

Very nice shots. Your focus is great. I especially like the close up shot of the wheels for some reason. Great detail.

I really like these, the first and last are my favorites. Love the tilt on the first, it makes the image more dynamic, and the DOF on the last is to die for. Great job! And I LOL at your dirty angel picture post ;)

I really like the close-up on the wheel. But the straight-on shot is my favorite!
