Three architectural examples without correction

Between 1955 and 1980, I handled numbers of architectural assignments for various architects as well as for building owners, and even for energy companies, etc. Obviously, many shots were made with a 4 X 5 inch view camera, enabling rise and fall lens shift as needed. However. when I wanted a dramatic shot, I often used my Brooks-Plaubel Veriwide 100, a special rollfilm camera made in Germany by Plaubel. It used a 47mm Schneider Super Angulon lens to produce a 2-1/4" X 3-1/2" image, six per roll of 120 film.
The camera had three factory-installed bubble levels that served to perfectly level the camera on all axes, if desired. These three samples were made with that camera. C&Cs are welcome from Hoggers. I heard plenty, good and bad, from clients in the past.
