Static Grass Part 7

This morning I completed this third of Hadarford with the static grass. Many thanks to Peco, who on their website have suggestions to improve model railway photography. For these photos I have used my camera set to "Aperture Priority" (A or AV, etc. dependant on camera manufacturer) and wound the F stop to its maximum F number, in this case F22. Usually, with indoor lighting, this might be anything between 1/10 of a second to 15 seconds, depending on the amount of illumination. Obviously, as it is impossible to hold a camera steady for these exposure times, the camera must be mounted on a tripod during the exposure and I also used a remote trigger to avoid further camera shake by depressing the camera shutter button (this bit I added). This method improves the depth of field so that distant objects are also in focus.
