开云体育Hi Bruce, Regarding the colour balance of photographs it may be that the photographers are altering the white balance setting on their cameras. On my Canon DSLR I can alter the white balance to whatever the ambient light is. I can set it for Tungsten, Flourescent etc. at the time of taking the photos. Also if I take in RAW format photoshop has a setting to adjust the balance. This does not apply if the photo is save as a JPG. I don't think that the compact digital cameras have as much flexibility.

?
Thank-you for the tip on the lighting. I was thinking of a desk lamp, the
type with the long swinging arm. (I think that is the same as what you have
suggested?)
?
My O16.5 display (which is approx 1 meter x 1 meter in the display area)
has an overhead gantry, with six adjustable quarts halogen lights.? A lot
of the pictures I have taken have a yellow bias. I have tried adjusting the
camera, without success, so I need to do some homework on possibly replacing the
current globes to give a better balance of colour? I don’t know why, however
pictures I have seen taken by other photographers of my display, do have a good
balance of colour, so maybe they are using a photograph editing application to
adjust the colour balance?
?
Thanks for the information on the A3014 motorway – I wasn’t aware of that!
I am a member of the Gauge O Guild.

Best regards
Bruce

Bruce,
Now I've managed to see the photos - v nice indeed! No excuses now: I need
to crack on.
On the lighting front, most of the box file layouts at Swanley a couple of
years ago had simple angle poise lamps. There are many types of bulb out there
to give different light temperatures, even dimmable and varicolour LED arrays,
so you can replicate dawn to dusk light angles and colour.
By the way, I used to live not far from the A3014 road here in the UK, and
would use it to visit the Gauge 0 Guild open day at Normandy, Surrey. See ?
Cheers,
David

<A3014 is now virtually complete, so I have posted a couple of pics. I will probably need to consider a back scene, and as for lighting, I haven’t started to consider how to apply lighting to something so small?> ? ? |
