Prototype Rails meet at Cocoa Bch, Fl - who's going?
I was just wondering who will be attending the Prototype Rails event on Jan. 8th, 9th & 10th. I won't be there the entire time but hope to meet any of you that will be attending. http://www.prototyperails.com
Very Cool Commercial
I don't know what I like more about this commercial; the fact that it was done all in-camera, one take with no CGI effects or all the cool model making. Nice to see the craft aspect of the hobby portrayed so well (the idiot hipster in the Che t-shirt at the end notwithstanding).

Cornhill & Atherton - first video attempt
Ok – first effort at making a video, with a view to getting some feedback to help me improve.
Equipment is a Nikon D5100 and a very old Sanyo Exacti (for the 'in cab' shots) with Sony Movie studio 13 to process .
There’s no attempt at a story here, just a montage of photos and video clips to ‘cut my teeth’ and get some idea of how things work.
Spam
The other night I was reading and I think instead of hitting reply I hit the spam button on s post or two. This was totally inadvertently as I would not do that intentionally. If your posts are missing it may have been my clumsy fingers. contact Joe maybe he can fix it, I am truly sorry.
