Interesting, Paul, you seem to have nailed that distortion. Although
measuring with a caliper indicates that the center of the top bottom and
middle of the post are close enough to the same distance from the edge
of the frame to not matter, my brain insists that there has to be some
distortion at the edge of the frame and puts it there.
I do think that some light on the wood of the bedstead to bring out the
grain would be helpful.

Hi Pancho,
Thanks for the feedback. I've correct the perspective. The revised
shot is here:

Since posting that i've also corrected the bit of barrel distortion
you can see in the left post. Thanks to Rob who pointed that out.
I posted the original because some members are curious about the lens,
and I wanted to show it unaltered.
Don't know what you mean by a light under the bed?? The bed is a bit
bright. I was thinking about bringing it down. It's getting a bit of
extra illumination because the main lights, which fire through
diffusers, are behind the bed and aimed at the ceiling. Just getting
ready to shoot two more views. Have to finish today.

Great shot. Ugly room. :-)
Hey c'mon, it's so lo-ve-ly!
I'm always been dreaming of such a bedroom - oops, in my nightmares...
In future I'd recommend sweeping the carpet to get rid of the foot
prints in the pile.
And I wonder if it's a lightbulb halfway hidden under the bed ;-)
Anyway, the light balance looks light nothing special, so it is very
well done if there's nothing disturbing about it, my honest admiration.
Paul, are you planning to add some perspective correction, have you
considered shooting from a lower point?
