Matheran station

Do I see vertical distortion or is the angle? I don't know... Probably wider would be good.

One more that I got in a mall

Looks good in colour, good in b/w. I love it. And surprisingly a low ISO shot from you:winking_NF:

@amlan ..nice colorful shot
[MENTION=125321]nac[/MENTION] I took only 35mm lens with me...so cant go wider...and i am sure its the angle ...the left part looks straight and right slight tilt....there was soo much fog and rain there that i took pics there at risk

I have one shot taken from front..will find and load

I am just loving the verstilty of 35mm lens..its just soo awesome...its wide, nice bokeh, sharp portraits, good at low light...all other lenses are sleeping nowdays

Tell us the specs of the lens..

I dumped my kit lens just after I got my 35. I only carry two lenses now 35 and 11-16

Some more of the model cars ... seems that it's quite the opposite of a normal shot. What I learnt

- You need to go to the smallest aperture (f/16) to ensure that the blur behaves like it would with a full size car shot from a distance
- To get false perspective it's best to have a wider lens at closed aperture (couldn't get this right)
- Low Iso means very slow shutter speeds
- Need to shoot with the cam on the ground to get the perspective right (realistic perspective)
- Cloudy days rock

Well I arrived at Stockholm and it is breathtaking....I guess it has more substance than Switzerland, more character. Anyways, to my surprise, I forgot my camera at home....the worst....thing ever.

Hi...maybe a bit late to post...dont miss stockholm metro stations. atleast click them with your cellphone, if you have forgotten the camera. This is just one of the many...

That's very nicely done, I wouldn't have thought it is a model. Wide angle makes sense, much less depth compression will give a realistic perspective. Should figure out why the f-stop makes such a difference.

This kid was unable to reach the binocular. He climbed on the pedestal and gave this look towards the port.

I wanted to use a wider lens but ended up using a 50mm to get the look right. Too wide an aperture causes a very shallow depth of field that adds to the miniature look. A smaller aperture seems to give the feel of a larger car at some distance from the camera

I'm still alive!! Will receive my camera through Fedex soon. I live near Universitetet and Tekniska högskolan metro stations, both of which are beautiful in their own sense. Stockholm feels kind of different from other European cities I have visited so far. On a side note, I have started shooting in RAW from my S7 edge.
