Thanks, but I didn't think they were all that great. I have the
optional gridded screen for my 5D which helps a bit but I don't really
have a suitable leveling arrangement yet for my tripod and head. I need
something better. I did make some minor errors here and there so a
couple of the images have a touch of perspective correction or a bit of
rotation. But for the most part they were OK as they came from the camera.
I had to do this all in one day and I'd never have gotten it done that
quickly if I'd had to use flash. Instead, these are composites of 2-3
images taken to cover a broader dynamic range. That was done quick and
dirty and I think contributes to what I consider a rather soft look to
most of the images. They're just layered and manually masked. #12, for
example, was particulary tough because of the full sun streaming in the
window. I don't have a late version of PhotoShop which handles high
dynamic range.
