Why is it that we see things in pictures that we don't catch when looking at the object itself..?? I know that happens to all of us....We look at a picture and say.."How did I miss that..!?!?"

That whole refinery scene is awesome...!!

Another of those unappreciated modeling tools. A decade or more ago, few people had digital cameras. One needed to have a somewhat decent SLR camera in order to take close-up layout photos. And then it would take days to get the film developed, and when it was usually to small prints that didn't show detail that well. Now, everyone has a digital camera. Even the point and shoot ones can take decent layout photos, and they can be instantly viewed on a computer screen. I think photos have led people to demand higher levels of detail from both the things they build and the things they purchase. Before people viewed their trains only with their 20/20 (or worse ), now they can view them many times their actual size on their computer screen.
