OK, it's obvious I need alot of help. Maybe you could check out the photo's in my gallery of the historical buildings and then give me some advice. Please somebody.

Well, Amanda, here's my spin on this project. I did a shoot a few months ago that was used for advertising a historical (some say also haunted) hotel in San Diego. The place was built around 1920. While the structure had a lot of ornate decorations, what I found really fascinating was the architectural interior details, the brass accents, the incredible hand-carved woodwork, the fabrics, gracious sweeps of the stairways, and so forth. So, a lot of my efforts concentrated on those and I mean in GREAT detail with different and dramatic lighting, with and without people in the shots. The project finished off with a horsedrawn carriage parked in front of the main entrance, and guests and driver in period costumes. Not a car in sight. The clients loved the whole thing, along with the art director and designer. Whaddya think? Mark

Thanks for the ideas Mark. It is for a local Competition here in Australia and the first one I've entered. Our town is an old gold mining town and we have a lot of buildings about 150 years old. I would love to get the feel of the gold History as well as the building I chose.

Avoid distortion due to perspective by using as long a lens as possible.

Architecture, especially historical architecture is one of my passions. Check out my website for some of my work. Like some of the other responses, it's nice to get the whole of the building, but what makes the best effect is to capture pieces that really portray the history. My Architecture photos: My website:
