I have been experimenting with trying to get images of trains that aren’t only, well, pictures of trains sitting on a layout. I have been playing with angles down low, such as track-level shots where you almost feel like you’re right next to the actual thing. Though, lighting is challenging; half the time it appears either overly bright or simply far too black.
Anybody else knows ways to bring images to life without costing a fortune on high-end cameras or light rigs?
I am now just using my phone and rushing about with a cheap desk lamp. What else is everyone doing to obtain those stunning photographs?
