    This is very nice little shot. The only slight problem I have is that the sky colour is too similar to the colour near the apex of the roof.

    The shot seems dark and depressing on my monitor. I like the compostion and think the color in the background would be nice if it was brighter overall.

    Hi Mark,

    I think you have a nice image here. I like the pastel like colors. I agree with Chunk that the image could be a little brighter.

    I think it would be nice if he went the other direction.. take away some saturation on the flowers and purposely make it a depressing picture. The clouds already make the room creepy.

    I initially liked the darker feel of the first but the second does have better impact with the seperation of foreground and background through your adjustment.

    Nicely framed and a great mixture of colours and the brightened version works far more for me, nice to see the forum suggestions leading to these kinds of results!

    I too like the second version best, better contrast and this adds visual interest to me.

    The difference is night and day. Beautifully adjusted. This really works!
