Gotta show that view. I think this could be rated much higher with a view. Nice image Charbel.

Solid photo (although I agree with Jay Cubitt about maybe replacing/enhancing the view). I am also bothered by the lack of of props. My eye keeps wanting a vase of flowers, a bowl of fruit, a throw, or a decorative pillow, anything. Either that, or an empty apartment with no furnishings at all.

Thanks for the insight guys! Believe it or not, that is the view, it was a sand storm outside that day :P..Need to hone the photoshop skills and get some blue skies in there.

With that much window space I bet its near impossible to get a better shot in a sand storm. What made you take the photo from that spot? Did you end up taking alternate angles from the same general area?

Thanks David, I took about 10 shots all different angles. My client is an interior architect who recently renovated this space so she wanted to show off the lighting.

Needed a window pull and I'm not sure what the right side of the frame is adding to the photo seeing how bare it is so perhaps either a tighter crop or panning left a bit would have been better.

I dislike the back of sofa's/couches, I would have moved right in and got a cosier shot and 100% would have pulled in more detail from outside, sand storm or not.

Wow! that view! It's such a shame that you didnt get the exposure right... it feels like you brought the highlights down to -100 as the whites in the sky are a bit grey. It would have been great if you took this image at multiple exposures and blended them together, as the lighting of the interior is really nice. I do feel the space is really bare, it doesn't feel lived in or inviting, so it is hard for me to imagine being in the space, especially since the sofa is "blocking" me from entering it.
