With film, you could use multiple exposures� and this might be necessary to let your 
flash
re-charge between pops � but do they make a digital that has multi-exposure capability?

Spending all day taking multiple exposures on one 54 transparency, filtering and 
balancing
different light sources, and not knowing if you got it right until half a week later 
must have
been a difficult learning curve.
 
The digital option, I believe is to take several different images and merge them in PS 
� this lets
you adjust the brightness of each flash or light source independently as you merge 
them into the
main picture. �and you can take several versions for each flash or light source and 
take your pick
at your leisure.

Are there any digital architectural mixed-light interior specialists out there - and 
what
technique do you use?
