| Maybe a bit tight crop, but a very nice shot of a good building. |

As I see it this is an extremely cool looking subject for the challenge but unfortunately you somewhat fail to use it to it's maximum potential!
For starters I think it was a wrong decision to shoot the building from an angle. A shot straight on the front side would have been stronger, in my opinion. Or, if you wanted you shoot from an angle you should have gone even further right and shoot from a steeper angle.
Another thing I would have liked to see here would be to include more of the enviroment around the house. Only having a picture of a terrific looking building is simply not enough for this challenge - the photographer has to be really creative to differentiate his entry from those 500 other pictures where one sees a building but not much more. What I'd have liked you to do here would have been to make the tree to the left of the house more prominent. A good framing would be to shoot the picture from further back and having the house to the right of the frame and the tree to the left.
Another option would have been to go real low to the ground, use a wideangle lens, and try to include some nice foreground in the picture - a flower, a rock, or simply the green grass.
I also think you should have done a reshoot of this picture when the weather was a bit nicer. For my entry in this challenge
I took an interesting photograph last week for this challenge but it was almost ruined by the white sky as is the case with your picture. What I did was that I traveled back to the same spot on Tuesday when the weather was nicer and shot it again - the exact same shot as last week but with nicer sky. Doing this would also have helped your picture enormously in my opinion!
For this photograph I also think it would have been nice to tone the colors down a tad. |

| Hmmm, I like this photo very much. The building has a lot to offer from the distance that you took the photo. Color, Testure, Shapes and the placement of the image in the frame makes this simple image work for me. |
