first rendering

[aderer]

Hi everyone,
This is not just my first C.R. but also my first steps in rendering.  I 'm happy I came up to Corona while in search for a renderer  to learn.  I believe if you are a rendering expert , you can get great results in the shortest time. So, any help would be most appreciated. I'll keep practicing.
 Thanks

Not bad at all. I would just move the camera target just a bit downwards. You'll see less of the ceiling, but overall it will help your image. You can also make your image just a bit lighter either in post or by adjusting the exposure. Lower the view (horizon line outside of the window) and dont be scared in raising the brightness of the image, so there is a greater sense of a sun lit environment outside.

Also, I would recommend you to start HDRI based lighting, it will suit your scene well. Try the VIZpeople HDRI.

The weather suggests there is a tsunami heading towards you. You should definitely make the background brighter. Browsing through some reference photos or other renders might help here. :)
