Description
Melanie loves hitching rides on trains, but the bridges are a pain in the ass. Don't get her started on tunnels.Melanie [link] by Bugidifino

Thanks, I really like this one too. You probably missed it because it's only 1600X1200

Yes,I really like how you make them nice and big almost all the time to see the cool details you do.Still noticed the subtle damage effects to the train car here though.

I generally leave them the same size as the original background image, though I do try to crop them to fit my monitor aspect ratios unless it's trimming something I want to keep.
Keeping the size up also forces me to pay more attention to details. It's so much easier to fake in a lot of things when the image is small.
Glad you noticed the train strain.

Yes,I like them big as well and keep them the original size when I can,although I will also crop to fit the scene better like I did with Jen vs traffic for example.I think it's a huge asset when we can show off all the little details we do,and I think members enjoy it too. I think us fellow collagers miss very little even if we don't mention it.

Thanks, it was really fortunate to find the train stock who's camera POV and sunlight matched so well with the pic of Melanie. It was also somewhat logical that she'd have to get up as the train approached the bridge.

She may try to run fleetfooted over the top or alongside through the water. I don't know which.

Along the top....lets see if the girders hold her weight.
For some reason 'Gonna hitch a ride' by Boston popped into my head. I wonder why..........

That would be my choice. I'm sure she'd rather damage the bridge than get her dress wet.
