The stairs in the old house are circular like most of the era. These are just not open and free standing. What makes this so great is the view nearing the top.
Upstairs, just off the landing is always a show. You can be greeted by mirrors, heavy furniture on the walls, even old wicker chairs.
What ever you find it’s extra dramatic since the big windows shine light right in your face. Shadows and contrasts, the time of year you visit, all play into what and how you shoot.
Ted, That’s the fun aspect of visiting homes built in another era. Ummmmmm, might I suggest another lens to add to you arsenal is the 8mm. It is really sweet and helpful to shoot with in confined areas. The Panasonic/Leica 7-14mm is also a really nice lens. It is a bit smaller than the 8mm and works well.
I have considered a wider lens several times. We have multiples that start at 12. Also just added the tiny 14-42 pancake (spur of the moment buy). When shooting Canon I did use a 24 prime for work like this and liked it but never have shot wider though. Someone is thinking some home renovations 😵💫 and we are heading to Florida for a while to shoot. So perhaps new stuff is not something I should mention 😆.
Have a great trip!
It’s time for the yearly excursions 😁, thanks.
