I don't know if this is abandoned or not, but I did not rate you down for that. Your composition could be improved by shifting the cabin to the left or right, or try to get the horizon from dead center. The shadows help the detail, perhaps they could have been a little longer, i.e. later in the day.

Good subject, but a bit "static" with the image being so center.
Perhaps a lower angle, a shift left/right would help.
Unsure on your software, but in PS, shifting the hue of the yellow slightly over to the right, bring it's saturation up a little and bringing the lightness down on it would give the grass a deeper, richer look.

The color of the sky (and trees) seems unnatural

Not too bad. I would have moved the building off center though. Also, I would go back out at different times in the day and try this one again. I think you could have had better lighting.

Nice blue contrast but too sure about the long shadows....

This photo brings up a the question, Can a reconstructed building that was never really occupied be abandoned?...Don't worry I am not evaluating this image on the question.

This is a nice stap shot......but what I find distracting is that the image is smack in the middle of the frame making it appearing to be rather heavy........not really a good reason for a bad score....I think you did a good job on the printing all though a little bit more attention to the in camera focus seems to be needed...5...

The lighting is too harsh here and the composition is poor. You should have placed the building off to the side of the image, and shot it later or earlier in the day.
