I'd like to second that. I'm not getting on your case either, but reasonable editing software will help a lot in showing detail. There are a few lil "tricks" and if asked I will elaborate.
Trains, r/c model aircraft and such are my hobbies. Photography is part hobby and part profession. I don't expect the same level here as what I produce. I've been in photo for ....well.... a very long time. As I'm more than a little "new " here it may be a while before I start posting images. In the mean time, I'd be happy to share.

Brian was not "getting on your case", nor was I. Just friendly hints for future postings. Some of the folks that participate here are on slower networks and extra large photos take forever to download. Some clarity in your large photos gets lost when your host site transmits to a forum. I, for one, would like to see a pic or two when they are "in the dirt".

altterrain Nice project. Just a few tips on the photos - Much brighter lighting is needed. It will enable the camera to take a faster and clearer pic. A mini tripod can help too. A maximum size of 800 pixels wide (or tall) is usually a good size and the max size requested by most forums. Basic photo editing software can do wonders!

I don't know what happened... the pictures were of much better quality when I took them.
I was also in a hurry so I didn't set up my tripod.
If it makes you happy I'll take more! Sorry they weren't up to your standards
I'm going to fill them with the 89 granite I use as roadbed.
I might put some little red lights on top...

Whoa dude, downsize your pic’s a bit. Looks like a nice little project. What kind of "rubble" do you plan on filling it with?
A few days ago I decided to build some bumpers for my sidings after seeing Martin A. Meng's article on "Building G-scale bumpers" that I found on this website. This is a very easy project and a money saver. The ties were donated from some bent Aristocraft track I would have thrown away! Here are some pictures:
ready to be added to my layout, fitted with Aristocraft railclamps
I will post more pictures when they are in my layout.
