Perhaps rather like an artist attempting a self-portrait, taking good pictures and videos of your own layout is surprisingly hard, in my experience.
I suspect a lot of that may because after years designing and constructing it you are simply too familiar with the subject.
Someone who is seeing it for the first time may find the viewpoints and angles which you have overlooked.
(They may also have better equipment or, quite simply, possess more talent and creativity...)
Therefore, I always welcome it when people watching our layout take photos and videos and are willing to spend the time to edit and share them.
Over the years FR volunteer Matthew Hall has produced some terrific videos of our former layouts Dduallt and Bron Hebog and I'm delighted that he has done it again for Minffordd following his visit to the show in Porthmadog at the weekend.
This is without a doubt the best footage I have yet seen of the layout.
It is a generous feature-length production of a full half-hour so grab yourself a drink, and maybe something to nibble on, then click, sit back and enjoy!
