Reinhard, I agree, the photos may be too big. I printed several different sizes, these are the largest, and "in my head" without having access to the layout, they felt correct. Some of the bridges I did are about 5 miles east-southeast of the downtown area, and the industrial areas are about 12 miles south. The photo of the downtown area I have is from the southeast, so it is somewhat the proper angle. As for the Greenway Plaza area, it is probably 15 miles from any significant industrial trackage. I'll end up doing whatever "feels" right to me, and the areas just might get painted smaller now that you have provided some ideas for me to think about. 
The backdrop you had of the houston skyline certainly looked good.
