Oh - SO last Century!

For the push challenge... @carolinedreams challenged me to: take a set up interior shot as though for an interior design magazine.

Turns out I suck at this too... ;p alternate attempts in my other albums:

Thank you all so much for the lovely comments on my Lambda Chi shot from yesterday... I am afraid I am behind on commenting again, but I expect to have time tomorrow to catch up :)
I love it. It's perfect. The sepia just makes it.

I really like the composition and the processing.. :-) You are too hard on yourself. It is a good push photo.
August 17th, 2012  
They sound so easy at first, then the over thinking sets in... Looks good :)
August 17th, 2012  
I do like this one the best! Difficult to do if you are not an interior decorator!
August 17th, 2012  
A very tough challenge...well done you!
August 17th, 2012  
Very nice, good in sepia.
August 17th, 2012  
Haha- Yay!!! Well done you! This was such a challenge and you really rose to it. I had no idea it would be such a pain for you so congratulations, you did it and you really do rock. Respect, as they say.

I saw this challenge on a TV show last week and thought it looked like fun. I'm going to have a go too at some point as it's a bit mean to challenge someone to do something I'm not prepared to have a go at myself.
August 17th, 2012  
@carolinedreams Oh hey - it wasn't a pain... Just HARD!!! And what wld have been the point if it wasn't? :). It might be easier for you... I really do suck at decorating... So had to figure that out + what I needed to do to make it simewhat photo-worthy :)
August 17th, 2012  
It happens to all of us. You did well with this challenge.
August 17th, 2012  
I think you have done a very good job at something which I would have to say is excruciatingly hard. Good on you
August 17th, 2012  
Lovely

This is great in sepia. I like how "family" pops.
August 17th, 2012  
Hehe! Nice one, I like this, the sepia works well!
August 17th, 2012  
Great shot :) That picture is very similar, sharing little secrets
August 17th, 2012  
Very nice Northy
August 17th, 2012  
You did it! So well done. This could definitely be in the pages of a 'Homes' magazine :o) xx
August 17th, 2012  
great processing to give this an older feel, great sepia tones and textures
August 17th, 2012  
Looks like you did it well. You rose to the challenge.
August 17th, 2012  
I really like the way you've processed this and I think the decorating works well too :)
August 17th, 2012  
Think you are being a bit harsh on yourself Northy. This looks great
August 17th, 2012  
Love the tone used. Great job. What a hard challenge.
August 17th, 2012  
I think you're getting there. :)
Love those candle sticks btw.
August 17th, 2012  
Love the sepia tones, and I think you nailed the table-scape! Great job.
August 17th, 2012  
Brilliant! No question! It's aFAB shot, so there!! Fav!
August 17th, 2012  
Love the tones
August 17th, 2012  
THis is actually amazing...
August 18th, 2012  
I like the set up except one of the candles is slightly cut off. You have some nice decor in your house. I hope you learned from it...much different than your street shots, I love seeing people's challenge shots, so interesting.

what would the interior design caption be? New this month, have a throw you don't like, why not put it in the waste paper bin?
ha
and if they're real I've got some serious sunflower envy.
August 18th, 2012  
I like the sunflowers!! they are a great b&w subject!!
August 19th, 2012  
@chewyteeth dang! should have had the knitting needles sticking out ;p
August 19th, 2012  
@newbie deliberately... 'cos it bugs me when things are too perfect sometimes... sigh...
August 19th, 2012  
So you have a hidden talent for decorating! Love the tones!
August 19th, 2012  
ohhh, that was a tough challenge!
August 20th, 2012  
You are too hard on yourself, you did an outstanding job here, you are a very talented photographer
August 20th, 2012  
Love the sepia tones and composition. Looks homely, actually (minus the t-rex version lol!)
