Enjoyed the pictures.  If you used flash for illumination in the top
picture, how did you get the exposure right for the person closest to the
camera as well as the one farthest down the bar?  Thanks.........Julian

I needed a shot of what people where doing during the Super Bowl. I went
to half a dozen bars, introduced myself to the bar keeps. I told them
what I wanted and that I'll be back to make the rounds for my shots when
the game starts.
I used a Rollei on a bracket with a Vivitrash 285, with dome attached
set at 45 degrees. Walking in, I placed the set-up on the counter, so
that everyone could see what was going on. It's almost the equivalent of
taking out a glass eye and putting it in you glass effect wise. Even the
most hardened bar denizen eventually will acquiesce to being photographed.
