      when i was a student, Holmes Lounge looked just awful. paint was peeling off the walls and ceiling, the woodwork was all banged up, metal chairs, and crappy tables. it is so wonderful now. great picture.

      The HDR makes all the difference, but this still has a painterly quality that I like. A sort of 'salon' shot that mirrors what you might have seen back in '04 when it was new.
