T
o start this month’s video, I talk about making your
model photos more interesting by simply adding the
human element, people, to your photos. Model photos
look dead and uninteresting without people in them. Simply
adding one figure or a group of people can be the difference
between a good photo and a great photo.
See the two Canadian locomotive shots on the following page.
One photo has no people and the other has two folks looking at
the locomotive. The first shot looks sort of boring, and the shot
with the figures in it looks more pleasing to the eye.
For the next segment of the video, I shoot a bridge that Dirk
Reynolds built. It represents a bridge at mile post 17.4 on the
Union Pacific’s Chester sub, at Fountain IL. Included in the text
of this month’s article are two model photos of Dirk’s bridge,
