The fixed layout had a backdrop the pizza doesn't and it really needs something. Most of the time I use a Nikon L18 Coolpix which has alot of features for a small camera but I also have a Fuji that supposedly has all the bells and whistles imaginable. I don't like it as I have to break out the instructions just to change a setting and spend more time setting it up than taking pics LOL
Have fun with your trains
My other post was blank because I had not upgraded my IE9 to compatablie with this site.

Is it REAL? or Just 1:29 scale?

Marty, just your text and signature pic is showing up.
Rene S RAW is an amazing format that allows for better reproduction--I've seen tutorials and it blows jpegs out of the water. It's also amazing how much "yucky" stuff sticks out once you photograph a scene, isn't it?

1. I wonder if my camera, which is supposedly a good one, shoots in that RAW format...I'll check it out.
2. I read somewhere that John Allen would study photographs of his work to see if it held up to his standards for the very reason that you see flaws more clearly in photographs.
3. Thanks for your input in this discussion!

St. Francis - shortly after you started this thread you indicated you would provide some more photos of your indoor layout.
Hoping you'll follow up with some.

Hiya Tom, I appreciate the interest, I really do, but I ain't going to be posting any pictures any time real soon....I just took the reciprocating saw to a huge section of my freight yard so I could reach the upper tracks, which, foolishly, I didn't finish BEFORE I started working on the yard. I'll post some pictures of the upper level of track when I get at least some of it finished. I hope I'll be able to cut out an access piece that I can slide in and out and build in the engine house entirely on it. I might post some pictures of my little disaster just for the heck of it.
Tom,
Really interesting pictures of your indoor layout. I do G Gauge in my backyard in Seaside just down highway 1 from you. If I had the space in our house I would most likely do it indoors. It was hard enough negotiating the outdoor space with my wife and I know indoors isn't going to happen here.
I know there are a bunch of G gaugers in the Santa Cruz Area and there are only three of us in the Monterey Salinas Area, one in Castroville and one in Prunedale (that I know of). A couple of these are world class railroads and thats putting it mildly.
If you'd be interested in doing some kind of joint visits please contact me.
