It has been a while since I took new pictures of the layout especially in the morning when the sun comes in through the east facing windows.  Yesterday morning around 7A.M. I went upstairs to do just that and was greeted by some very nice contrasts between light and dark.  One thing that I have noticed is that the large/tall model structures on the layout cast dark shadows much like the real thing and so one gets a life like feel when using only the natural light when taking pictures.  So...I thought I would post pictures taken at different positions which I have not done before...and of course a few that I have.  Hopefully you all will enjoy and as always I appreciate you taking the time to look and comment....!  If you click to enlarge, you will get a more detailed view....

 

Thanks,

Alan

Thanks Hoppy....the street is actually the painted surface of a sheet of "Quietbrace".
