 When people, young and old alike, see the swing, they run to grab a seat.The railing of the deck leads at a right angle, not just to the swing, but to a seat. While the hand rail is not at a right angle , it never-the-less also leads to the seat. . . giving the shot some balance and also reinforcing the height of the porch and swing.The lattice work also has plenty of right angle work to knit you snuggly into the seat.
The shot was corrected for tilt. Enough tilt was left in to give the feeling of an uphill subject. It was cropped for effect, adjusted for color, then sharpened and sized for the web.

A little overexposed. Lower the ISO setting should help. It should give it better contrast. You have nice shadows in the piece. Playing with contrast and brightness so help bring them out more. Great composition.

Very nice angle and composition, colors could be more saturated and may a filter so the sky is not washed out.

A good composition, meets the challenge but marred by
1) Very washed out sky
2) Chromatic abberation
3) Excessive noise

I think I would have removed the bell string for the photo. It is a bit distracting from the gracefulness of this photo.
