    Here's a rooftop detail from Gaudi's "Casa Milo" in Barcelona. I think it's a chimney, but mostly it's scary. Every aspect of this building bears close scrutiny. (What were they thinking when they let him build the Sagrada Familia anyway?) Shot on Vericolor III and printed here on Ilford MG paper.

    Dear John,

    very nice picture. However, the name of the building is not "Casa Milo", but "Casa Milà" (see this wiki entry, or this one, if you prefer English over Catalan ). It is better known among the locals by the name of La Pedrera, which is the Catalan word for quarry. Originally, La Pedrera was a pejorative nickname, due to the rough appearence of the building.
    Best,
    Pau

    Thanks, I should have checked, a lot of my notes from the trip have gotten smudged or lost.

    I think this might be the first architectural picture I've taken with my LF gear! Mission San Xavier del Bac near Tucson Arizona - Intrepid Mk4 and Schneider 210mm Symmar-S on FP4+ developed in Stearman Press Ultra for Large Format. If I remember correctly, I had front rise and shift to frame it up how I wanted, but that was about it. I could set up far enough away that I didn't need any major tilts or swings. Looks a little off vertical to me now which is irritating as I'm damn sure I had my bubbles level!

    Apart from that the tonal scale is amazingly good, great start for your Intrepid journey. In wet print or digital pp it can be turned right no?

    Thank you - I'll confess that I didn't notice the non vertical until I posted it, so I was mainly irritated with myself!

    I’m not normally an architecture photographer, but I’ve been looking for something that I could print very big over my new desk.

    Today I got lucky and sneaked into a 19 storeys apartment block at dusk.
    From the top floor I caught this.

    Not quite good enough to make it to the wall, but now that I know the trick to get access to that amazing venture point I’ll wait for a day with more interesting light.

    Verticals are "way off". Bubble levels are not reliable to line up for an image like this. Use a good gridded ground glass, this will go a long ways to preventing this from happening. Levels are no where accurate enough as much depends on if the building is level relative to camera placement. An accurate grid on the GG can be used to evaluate lens distortion as camera movements are applied. There is also the question of how accurate the levels are on any given camera.

    Cross at the top got cut off a bit.
