I really enjoy creating something different with drones. I've had the Mavic now for about four weeks and I absolutely love it.

Mixing Film and Night - New for Me
Here are a couple long exposure shots using my original 50 year old Minolta SR-T201 and kit lens shooting Fujifilm Neopan Acros 100 II. Both images were taken just at the end of blue hour.

The things that really stands out to me in these (in the first 3) is that though all the painted walls are the same color it seems, all 3 photos show a different shade or tone. The first picture is more beige/orange, the second is more pink, and the 3rd is a mix of the 2, only darker(unless that room actually is darker). The carpet also looks to be different colors in all 3.
It also looks like you may have edited all of the whites to be a pure white, I don't see any color being cast in reflections at all.
I'd try and balance your colors better. I know different light sources are going to be cooler or warmer overall but balance is key with higher end real estate photos.
Yes this house was special because it has around 8 different colors some rooms have more than one shade of the same color.
Did you noticed that the downstairs room in the first photo has a dark purple color.
For the carpet it has the same color but the light and rom shade effect the darkness of the carpet color but you can see that they have very close color.
The pure white color it's my signature and also the client choose
it takes 5 extra minutes but turn the lights off to shoot then mask in afterwards. This technique stops ambient orange bleeding into the image and when using flash don't blast it in to colored walls. flash will make it easier to get that perfect white balance.
Thank you for your advice.
Did you tried before to photograph house with crazy color like this house , different color for each room and different shades of the same color in some rooms with olney one white Surface .
I tried every thing you said but with this crazy color this was the best outcome .
The first photo is the only one with little color bleeding on the farther side of the hallway because of an orange hollow on the wall with an crazy orange vase
"It takes 5 extra minutes but turn the lights off to shoot then mask in afterward." I disagree with your opinion. It is a useless step that slows down your workflow. Modern digital cameras are capable of saving a lot of information that could be manipulated in post process. I did advertising photography for https://virtoproperty.com/ last year on my Nikon D750 and didn't have any serious issues with color. No masking, just one shot per picture.
