I don't know how to think of myself - as a model railroader who takes photos, or as a photographer who models trains. I was a teenage model railroader but got out of the hobby after high school, marriage and a career. Got back into it about 20 years ago just so I could take some photos of models and submit them to magazines. Close up photos of models helped me greatly when I first started out, as all of the mistakes and out of scale things on the models would stick out so much. That's when I started replacing the cast on grab irons with wire ones - much more realistic looking! The motto on my model railroad pass says "The railroad that photography built". This is true in more ways than one, as having my photos published in the magazines has more than paid for all of my toys! (800 photos published, 27 covers). Bob Boudreau
