Buyer review complete, Marketplace review

Im looking for an image of a school desk, outside, in a snowy landscape for use on a book cover. Use of filters to create an atmospheric look is fine but non filtered images are OK too.

The weather can be either calm or stormy and the desk can be vintage but not older than the 1950s. A contemporary school desk would be fine as well, though. Winter landscape references could also be seen in the background (fir or pine trees etc) but the landscape should have a stark, harshness to it. The image should be taken in the day.

The image should have an arresting, stark quality, highlihting the odd juxtaposition of an interior object in an exterior setting. Close up shots or long shots of the desk are fine. Im looking for drama and a sense of sadness or melancholy.

The school desk doesn't necessarily need to look weather beaten and abandoned, though I would consider images like that. It could also look like it’s been sitting outside just for a few days. There should be no papers, pens etc. on the desk--just the desk alone.

If the desk style does not have a built in chair (see inspiration images) please include a chair along with the desk.
