Not satisfied with a conventional train layout for my first Christmas train, I

Very original and clever!  I like this a lot!

As for the lighting, make sure your camera is on close-up mode (the
flower icon, instead of the tree).  That should help with the colors.

Good advice so far.

And use a flash.

And here is where we differ.

Flash introduces glare. If you can, use good lights, use a tripod and longer
exposure times, etc, but avoid flashes. Some things flash makes better, some
it makes worse. Conventional wisdom (not just me!) is that LEGO(r) is one of
the latter.

See lugnet.publish for lots more thoughts on this topic. (hence my XFUT to it)
