Massachusetts Model Mania: The BIG SHOW, West Springfield—Wide Angle Views.

1 Comment

You can’t take it all in! Four big buildings full of models, photos, artifacts, old timetables, books, and of course lots of friends!

The show is on today too!

I made hundreds of images. This selection was exposed with my FujiFilm X-T1 with 12mm Zeiss Touit Lens.

This super wide angle view provides an unusual perspective. It allows for great depth of field, but also some distortion.

More to come!

    Looks like a great model RR show. Denver has one or two each year but it doesn’t look like ours is as large. I always going and especially watching the running outfits.
