One factor in what i call "true minifig scaling" is not to just keep the minifig height in mind, but also the fact that the original minifigs low hip joints might create the impressions of tires being "too large" for a vehicle. I also forget that fact myself sometimes, since i often place minifigs next to my vehicles. However, if you keep using the realistically proportioned "human fig" as a template next to your MOC, selecting the right tires/rims for your vehicles wont be any trouble.
Revisiting some Iceland image, as I have this terrible habit of editing one and leaving the rest.
This is one of those images that I would have over edited last year, relying on saturation and contrast to carry the image rather than letting it breath. Not saying that one style is better than the other, but it demonstrates a personal evolution.
Flickr Friday theme Scale. Cookie lost a bet with Rusty and had to pay his weight in cookies. I think he cheats. Has a his hand on the scale. Happy Flickr Friday. the old photographer,;-)
A line of hikers making the ascent. Also reminds me of the 'ants go marching...'
Bonus points if you see the two hikers descending.
Thanks for looking!

From time to time i post these scale comparissons.
Old Sets make us feel nostalgic - but i also think that overall the scale back then helped a lot. A 4 wide car compared to a 6 wide train made sense. The Vehicles were not as big as today (8w Speed champs!), used less parts - but still, they felt right. Using modern elements you can get a higher level of detail in a similar scale, which is known as 1/43 - 1/45 scale. Once you see a proportinate Minifigure next to the Minifigs we have today since the 1970ies, you can see why a smaller scale is actually better (except playvalue!).
If you do cars 4-5 wide, Trucks 6-7 wide and Trains 8 wide - you are technically in the proper minifig scale (height based!).
EB CN grain train G898 is on its knees as it climbs out of the Mississippi River valley. The train is cresting the highest elevation on the railroad ( in the state of Illinois ) at Scales Mound. The train could be heard 15 minutes before it arrived. Thanks to Craig for the intel.
I would have preferred a 50mm shot off the road bridge that I am on, but there is a thick wire going across the tracks. I am standing on the roof of my truck, in order to get above the wire. No way to get below the wire.
I thought I'd have an outing before my area goes in to Covid Tier 3 tomorrow. Revisited Scale Haw Force hoping, this time, for some autumnal colours but suspect I'd missed the best of it.

This waterfall is fed by an overflow system from Scaling Reservoir, in North Yorkshire. Heavy rain has given a nice flow and though I've not been, for many years, I thought I'd visit today.
Sometimes, it's good to stand back and get a little bit of perspective on things. It's especially useful when showing your photo audience the size and scale of a scene, such as this one I captured of a couple taking in the immensity of the red-rock formations seen along the Navajo Loop Trail in Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah. Most photographers balk at including people - either because they don't want anything human in their landscapes or because they can't get model releases from them if they decide they want to try and sell the image.
For my editorial purposes, I like including people and man-made objects in my images (sometimes) for the purpose of scale as well as to give my viewers a perspective of the scene and some kind of reference for their mind to recognize.

I went to so many waterfalls in Iceland that I can't remember the name of this one. The sun was up creating intense contrast - a difficult shot. Pictured here with photographer Steve Bell balanced on a rock to give it a bit of scale
The Peterbuilt doesn't look so big when compared it to the Galaxy C-5's engines. The Galaxy C-5 is the world's largest military airplane. This one and the ones in the background are in storage at the Aircraft Maintenance and Regeneration Group, Tuscon, Arizona. At the time I took this picture (2012) there were over four thousand US military aircraft being stored here, and they are all wrapped for protection from the elements. I did some research and this particular airplane (0466) seems to still be there.
