Comment by undieyatch:
mixed lighting grabs my attention....... in this vacant but ornate room. Nicely observed setting, and thoughtful composition with the light on and the chair facing a window indicating the "haunting" presence.

Interesting example of addition by omission.

This photo is very strange, something in it has so strong influence, almost disturbing to look at, but I dont know what it is, it's real spooky.

Strange, voted this a 7 while voting... Now returning for comment and seeing the thumbnail it looks like 3 white dresses of 3 ghosts....
Upping to 8 for making me rethink...

Interesting, stark, simple image. I like the symmetry and use of pattern and texture here. I'm not "wow'ed by it, but I think many people might be. Good, solid photography here.

this is a wild image. even without the title, it has an erie feeling to it. you can really feel the distance between you and the window. great job. good luck with the challenge!

Very artistic - I love the use of the windows and light as shapes in the composition and the placement of the chair and chandelier, giving it just the right amount of balance. I'd like it to be a tiny bit sharper, but still a masterful piece of art. 9

This images is great. A high ceiling, gown like curtains with backlight, in this case, outside light. The tones are just smooth. Many amateurs fail with this image because they forget the importance of holding the camera's sensor parallel to the wall. It has a much classier feel then Hotel California. While this image is a great mood setter, it gives the viewer no distinct sense of texture. It is beautiful and leaving a lot to the imagination. Bumping up to 7
