Well done, especially for a first go.

A few things stand out that you may find useful to consider on future projects.

Notice the darker gradation at the opposing corners of the back wall. If that were carried further into the middle area, ever so slightly, the corrected area wouldn’t stand out as much. Recreating those effects will take some tooling around, but you’ll find its application necessary in certain compositions. Don’t be afraid to try.

Then there’s perspective. Take a look at the receding angle of the bottom drawer on the right side of the desk in the background. It should more closely align with the same receding angle of the desk top against the wall. In some cases you can use other objects, like the angle of the desk at which you’re seated, for further reference.

Again, nicely done. Hope you bring many more memories back from the fringe. 🤙

What the fuck happened to the original picture? Were you using it as a dartboard your whole life?

I came here to say that this image probably takes up more storage space than that entire computer had.
