I've been doing a small project in my neighborhood lately. The community is
assembling a web site, and they asked me to shoot some nice pictures of the
homes here. I have 10 good shots so far that I'm paying to have put on CD.
Once they copy them, I'll post them to my web site for your viewing pleasure.
My latest efforts have been an experiment with using fill flash on
architecture. I am using a sunpak 555 with the ttl module for OM. I tried
shots using ttl and others with "normal auto". In "normal auto" I fooled the
flash by setting the film speed to 400 while the camera had 100 speed. I am
using Kodak's 100VS ektachrome. The ten good shots look really nice, with
very saturated colors. Of course, I used my B+W polarizer for just about all
of them. The german wood tripod I'm using is also very nice. I'm not sure if
it's as rigid as my titall, but it seems stiff enough.
