Billnikon,
How would you take this photo?
I have on camera flash pointed up to the ceiling and a flash from the right pointed up to the ceiling.
Lots of burn out. 10-20 Sigma lens at 10mm on a D5500 Nikon. The two flashes are Sunpaks 383's manual.

Either use of off camera flash, and exposing for the scene behind the window, or HDR. With the dynamic range in the photo, there really isn't another way.

I have to disagree. I do a lot of lake property photography, and a satellite photo will show you the top of the roof, but not show you the surrounding view, the yard, and the façade of the property both front and back. High up ones are useless, but a shot from about 50' can look amazing and show a lot of detail.

Those of us that spent the time and money to be certified, and pay for the expensive insurance, don't consider it "playing with a drone"

A shot of a house in a neighborhood isn't much to look at, and may be "worthless", but a sprawling estate that has some amazing landscaping is also a very good use.

Here is a sample of how I like to take photos. It may not be tops but it get's the job done. And the next one is lighter.

Use high intensity battery powered single light hand held pointed at ceiling ( assuming white)

Would you mind providing some samples. I'm looking for examples of interiors with views in windows.

Thanks.

Mission accomplished. Nice.

I use 100 ISO in RAW so I have plenty of latitude in Camera RAW which is where I edit pretty much everything. I've used multiple flashes, HDR, one flash and just ambient. Now I just use the last two. I find I can get the outside shots without using HDR much anymore.
