 This is where I spend my day. I am an Dental General Anaesthetic Nurse.....I put small children to sleep in an endeavour to take all their rotten teeth out........Can't say I really enjoy it.

I love the way you phrased that. . .I put small children to sleep. . .

Just looking at the shot makes my teeth hurt, though! :)

I don't like the dentist, but who does!
Oh, apparently xianart does!!!!
Anyway, you've captured the feeling of the dentist pretty well here.
I can almost smell it!

Nice shot of where you spend your days; I agree a lower f-stop to sharpen things up might be nice, but it definitely tells the story.

I shiver at the thought of going to a dentist....poor kids. I'm sure you're gentle with them though.

Well composed shot. Working on children is always a challenge. At least they're better off after visiting you than they were before, even if they may not be inclined to see it that way right away.

At least you spend your day by the chair and not in it. I bet you see a lot of frightened little faces!

I like the idea of going to sleep while at the dentist! Nice shot of an environment I'm not thrilled about being in :-)

Hi Jane.

This is a nice shot for stock use. A little on the low light side, but can see that you were trying to use the natural light in the room. Perhaps a tripod with a long exposure and small f-stop to get the 'blur' factor out and make things nice and sharp while still giving you more light.

The low light has caused some noise in the shadowy areas, but not a real big deal here. Thanx for sharing your work space with us.

Looks like a nice clean dentist sugery. I am one of those rare people who actually likes going to the dentist, I always feel very relaxed and almost fall asleep.

A nice shot, alittle blurry. Maybe try shooting from a different perspective, low like the child? just trying to give suggestions. I like how you used the room's light rather than the flash it feels more natural.

Nice neutral tones. A bit better focus to get some sharp clarity on the chair would imrove the overall composition,.
