      Good work! Feeling much better with piano etc. The exterior picture is the wrong perspective for the room. You'd want the horizon lower and the vanishing points sort of going along with the window grid.

      pbacot :

                  I wasn't sure about where to set the horizon.  I didn't want to give the impression that the room was high up.  As for the pic itself.......I wasn't sure about that either.   Thanks for your comments (advice).
                                                                      garystan
      

      If you look at the window sill and the horizontal muntins, the lines converge in the area of the lower panes, so the eye level of the viewer is somewhere in the lower pane, and the horizon would be there, not in the upper pane.

      WOOPS I edited the wrong post. The picture should go here.

          garystan, just want to reinforce I'm in no way knocking your efforts. By gosh your trying and asking questions and that's how you get better. Was a little bored last night so threw together an example model to try and better express some of the things I was saying. Have no idea the exact dimensions of your room so just sort of tried to get reasonably close. Just put representations of the 3 main elements. Killed the color as it was a little distracting from what I was trying to show. The piano is a concert grand and very close to real world dimensions. Lowered eye height and set F.O.V.to 45 degrees. My point is don't be afraid to experiment ... keep up your efforts 👍

            Horizont of outside exterior is always tricky.

            I usually set a 360° pano as background, so I don't have to worry about the horizont. It always matches. wherever your viewpoint is.

            Here's an example (Have a look at exterior):

                                Thanks for your advice guys.  I did a  re-do (for the Xth time) of Piano Room.  I think I got it this time.

                      Do you mean a  360 degree panoramic background ?  Could you explain more about this ?   And how do I go about setting up a 360 degree background. Where do I find it ?  Sorry about all the questions.  But, this does sound interesting.

                    It depends on the render engine.

                    I am using twilight render. I could explain it for this app.

                      Please do. I have Twilight and would like to know more about how to do that. I will then have to try to find some suitable images to use in a 360 environment.

                        The backgroundimage should be an equirectangular panorama in aspect ratio 1:2 like these: https://www.flickr.com/photos/gadl/sets/72157604695660345/

                        In twilight choose the backgroundsettings, take spherical background. Decide if the sun is on or of.

                            Thanks for sharing this link. I downloaded one just to try it out and it is very interesting. Just wish I could find some that would work well with my car washes. Especially cities or neighborhoods in the US.

                            Would love to find a source of US oriented images like these.
