Backscene Bandwagon

Himself has taken an executive decision that a plain background to the layout wasn't good enough and surprised me last week by announcing that he's invested in a batch of self-adhesive photographic backscene sheets.

These are becoming quite common now and the ones he's picked are produced by International Models.

It's a compromise, of course, because the scene is not exactly the same as the slopes of Moel Hebog which rise above the Beddgelert S-bends but I have to say I think it looks effective enough in the shot above.

One of the things which pleases me most is the shades blend in, which is always the concern I have with using these type of backscenes.

What's for sure is it's certainly way better than anything we could create ourselves with a paintbrush.

It may be in due course that an opportunity presents itself for a more authentic, bespoke solution, but this will certainly do the job for going to Dinas in a fortnight.
