for me this is close … really think the comp is to the right - the ceiling wood detail marks the focal point … no need to get that right wall and doorway into the shot … the ceiling is the star and will make someone move to see or buy the home … so i would compose more for that as well as it will let you tighten up a bit focal length wise and diminish some of the sloping and stretching effect… also… contrast will really bring the toning to a more “complex” and deeper level … that will help the overall image start to move from 2d to 3d … couple that with pushing the whites and possibly a slight curve to bring the brights back a bit .. overall it feels just a bit flat … believe it or not but toning will also will enhance wood grain and fabrics …
