Yes, it’s a model - 5
6: This is the first of Jürg's images we saw posted on the MRH
website and it's a dandy. From the reflection in the water to the
composition, lighting, and depth of field, it's an excellent quality
model photo, clearly a standard-setter for
Yes, it's a model
.
Jürg Rüedi says, “This picture shows a BC Rail Car from Gary
Christensen and an engine from Jim Rinker. The diorama is about
the size of a laptop computer and was built by my German
friend, Stefan Foerg.”
Jürg admits his own modeling isn't up to this level, but it's easy
to see his photographic skill is first rate, and his eye for excellent
modeling is second to none. There's also something to be said for
a model railroader who knows how to collect the work of many
modelers together to get a superb, top-notch whole. Jürg Rüedi
clearly knows how to do that, and using his photography skill to
show off the work of these modelers allows the rest of us to ap-
preciate what's possible in this hobby if we work together!
