Great capture of natural light. I see the decay and cannot help but wonder what this place looked like in the past.

Intriguing photo...BUT....I do not see any "treasure" in an old room in a decrepid building. Perhaps the addition of a vase and flower on the table or even a book of knowledge might have been more appropriate.

In my top 3 for sure. Absolutely beautiful!

Seems like I've seen this room before in another challenge. I love the blue peeling paint on the wall, the abandoned look of the lone desk. A bit too much dark on the left & right sides, and there was probably no way to lose the (relatively) modern light fixture...

can't se ehow this is a hidden treasure when it's so dilapidated? love the lighting and the setup and the colors. 6.

This is a tough one. I really like the photo. You certainly did well with that lighting at hand. It's always tough to photograph a room like this when you have such bright highlights and such dark shadows. If there were a candidate for an hdr treatment, this certainly would be it. I know that's not legal so I can't fault you for it. I give it a solid 7.

Often a treasure can be found in places like this, but I'm otherwise not getting it in your photo. That aside, the natural light from the window on the peeling blue wall is actually quite well exposed, and the other inside colours appear natural with little or no PS magic.

Beautiful lighting. The peeling paint makes for a very textured and intereting shot.
