Terry I used the macro setting on my camera for all of the photos and the close up were taken 6 to 8 inches from the figures. Sorry for the delay in replying......Joe

Thanks. I tried regular auto focus in the first shot

and macro autofocus in the 2nd shot.

Big improvement. Now to work on sharpness. Go to manual aperature mode?
suggestions?

Spent some time putting together and setting up to create a number of photo dioramas of a section of the wagon park under attack at Isandlwana which will appear on various threads of the forum. It took some time but was a great way to spend time playing with and photographing my WBritain Zulu War Sets and figures..........The Lt.

Here's another mini dio and you guessed it featuring my WB ZW figures....The Lt.

Excellent stage by stage shots Joe, you can see where I get my ideas from, many thanks mate.

Terry are you using the flash when taking the photos and if so try taking them without it using only the lighting that's in the room....Joe

A slightly different touch as shown it the past for featuring a photo from a photo diorama.....The Lt.

Setting up and photographing for another group of photos featuring once again by beloved Trophy sets and figures with a little help from Britain's and Frontline.

You are going to like Conte's new Zulus and British soldiers when they come out sometime in December. They have a wow factor.

A little Middle Earth Drama.

Hope to see it continue it's another one of your photos which brings the figures to life. More please from the Middle Earth

 

[The Lt.]

Thought I post this photo in black and white having featured it earlier in color win the WB ZW thread.

Nice Black and Whites Lt., Joe, those Armies of the Middleearth figs are cool. I don't think they got enough attention. Now you have to pay $25.00 for a three pack. The second Rohan rider is going for $75.00. It's crazy times.

 

[The Lt.]

A little playtime this AM Mike once again in black and white.

[The Lt.]

What a nice way to start the day my Aide de Camp seeing you at play it's been awhile and it sure looks like the defenders of the south wall have their hands full. Enjoyed identifying your cheapies and sure looks like you had fun playing with them.

 

[mikemiller1955]

Mike...very nice pictures...enjoyed them...thank you.

 

[1879fanatic]

Thanks, fellow Men of Harlech!
I had my two (lovely) children set the whole thing up! I merely poonted out the gaps in the offense. The CTA guys had some issues standing up straight
