PP job is good.
Sepia toning suits and the image has a good tonal range (apart from the clear blown highlights on the door and tops of stair posts.
The image could have done with a perspective that allowed for a straight horizon both at the bottom and at the top of the frame. The word 'office' should also have been completely in the frame IMO.
Pleasant result, though.

Thanks. This was what I was working with. It was a extremly bright day and the picture was washed out. I really shoulve have been paying more attention to the framing of the photo a couple of steps back and I could have really filled and balanced the frame.

The post processing is nice and "old-timey", but I think the photo itself is still a throwaway.

I agree, just trying to polish a "turd." It was more an exercise in post processing. Im just starting to get into the pp. Im a film guy and have done most of my work in the darkroom, so this is a fun way to learn.
