Drawers in sepia.

No, not underwear. Sepia vs. Normal? I decided to go with sepia since the picture lacks a lot of colors to begin with, but any natural color it does have are more brown than black and white, so I figured a sepia filter would be a better choice than grayscale. Also, what methods do you use for post-processed sepia? Just the regular old PS filters?

sepia looks better... do you know how to bracket? You take one really dark shot to get the window and one a big lighter to get the detail, blend them together and then your window won't look blown out. You can always HDR it by taking 3-5 shots. Read up on it and get yourself a copy of Photomatrix pro... you'll love it!!

Still we smile and deny that we're cursed.
But of all our iniquities ignorance may be the worst.

Yea I know about blending, when to use HDR and how to, but I didn't bother taking more than one shot since this is from a film camera and at first I was a cheapskate about film. I'll definitely give it a shot next time, though. I'm sure it would improve the shot.
