 thanks for all the comments. :)

yes, this is an actual room. it is an abandoned gas station that is missing most of its roof. that is where the vines and the grime on the floor comes from.

I like this one, Sher. Nice finish. Something about that single turquoise chair.

Cool colors, nice composition, but was it taken outside or in a ruined room?

Usually I like high contrast photos, but this one looks a bit overprocessed.

I like the variety of colors in this photo.

Nice photograph with wonderful colors. You photo does give me a sense of emptiness. The only thing I may have done differently is bring the chair out a little. Make it stand out more. With all the colors around it, it kind of blends. Good Job! 7

This picture is a bit more interesting than some of the others. You have a neat group of colors and patterns. It does look like it's outside rather than inside though... but still a bit better than some in this challenge.

Strong mood and there is indeed a feeling of emptiness.

This gives the impression of being outside, as in a courtyard, rather than in an empty room. I do like the way the color of the chair brings out the blue in the bricks.

The chair fits well in this environment, nice composition.

Very graphic...
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The branches or vines on the upper left give this the appearance of being outdoors rather than in a room. The composition, colors, and lighting are very nice.

A bit too busy, I think.

Love the use of colors here. I like the gritty look too. I think the title could have been a little bit more creative though :P. I just realized what i like most of this photo is that all the lines point to the subject, including the corner of the missing billboard on the top left.

Very nice - love the colors and the color of the chair
  Photographer found comment helpful.

With the branches hanging overhead this looks as though it is outside the room, not in. Neat shot though - I love the treatment and colours.
