get some color

so i whipped out the ol' digital camera for a gig this morning. pretty simple make eight photographs of the synagogue. i only succeeded in 6 of them. one will have to wait until the afternoon because the position of the sun was wrong (above, soon). the other i missed is beyond my skill level -- photograph the subtle grooves and sag of the floor.

shooting color is so different than black and white. the big problem is color balance. i was using a flash, there was daylight streaming in and the sanctuary was light with tungsten lights. the jpgs are either too yellow or too blue all the time. hopefully i will be able to fix that in photoshop with the raw files.
