Usually when I walk in a room with floor to ceiling windows like this I get a little nervous. Lighting up a room this size, and avoiding huge reflections in the windows from my flashes, can be daunting. But I recently switched over to a new photographic technique which involves taking the same shot at different exposures and blending them together. What you end up with is an image that has very few dark shadows or overexposed areas, and it's all done with ambient light - no flashes.

I shot the larger rooms and the window views that way, and I'm pretty happy with the result. It's more time on the computer, but less time on location.
