Nice shot and lighting. Composition is good. This is my dream living room with those ceilings. Watch for the shadow created by the beam. Was that from flash? Also, I think the leaves from the tree that are just poking in on the right can go. I find it a little distracting.
yeah agree with jenn on the flash shadow ... very nice but i feel like it’s just a tad wide at bottom and top ... but i know this was probably difficult to achieve, retaining the architecture and those pendants without going into a higher budget approach with shift lenses and forever to set the comp ... but maybe scooting some furniture around and possibly moving plant info scene a little more or just cropping it out all together ... windows are a too clean controlled for me but i know that is the popular real estate look these days...
Shadows were from a skylight top right - no flash there. Wish I’d included more of the leaves - I wanted to balance the pendants. Definitely could have moved back a bit and zoomed in to get the same comp without the wide issues. Thanks for the CC.
