  • @[email protected] Do you rent lenses? If so, do you typically rent them from one supplier and take them with you, or do you find a rental business where you're going, or some combination?

    (I'm assuming you've sprung for the IQ4 since you use it so often, but I guess that doesn't /have/ to be the case either...)

  • Washington ("Hinckley") Hilton Hotel, Washington, DC, 2023.
  • @[email protected] lol, I was thinking about exactly this last night. Please actually do it :)

  • Cathedral of Learning, University of Pittsburgh, 2023.
  • @[email protected] I always enjoy this photo. There's also a great shot of the top of floors in Chris Hynes's book "Highrises: Art Deco". Oddly without the antenna mast, though.

  • AT&T Long Lines "Oak Hill" Tower, San Jose, CA, 2021.
