    I think that's a great image, and I completely follow why you've done what you've done. But in my view there is nothing different in principle from letting AI do its stuff - both a outright manipulations of the source image. The important...

  2. المشاركة في موضوع 35025 Brocklebank Line.

    My connection with MNLPS took a long time, I spent a lot of time in 66/7 travelling on and photographing what was the last steam main line and often had the financial misfortune to encounter someone from MNLPS shaking a collecting tin . I don't...

    Even before Photoshop !. I have a book by Les Nixon in which he describes adding exhaust to a shot of 4498 which had none using a second negative of a completely different loco. The darkroom process was never just one of always giving the same...

    I hope your post and communications with MNLPS members will reassure people such as such as @Steamage (See his post #309). He has raised some perfectly valid points - to which I could add the issue of support crews if both 35025 and 35028 were...

    Yes, but some people, myself included, try to correct this and present the world as it really was. People have been stealing from each other since time began but that doesn't make it right, We learn from the past. We can't do that if the past is...
