Ouch. This seems to be really, really over exposed. Maybe you were going for that, but it just doesn't work for me. Sorry.

love this so very much.....

Blowing out the colors as you have makes this shot seem much more unique than the standard run-down house shot. A little more definition in the foreground would lead the eye to the house a bit more, though.

very interesting building...strong colors

great light and details

I believe the image may be a bit overexposed. Nice subject matter though.

too overprocessed

In general this image is a little over-bright for my taste, but the colours and detail in the home seem to have been preserved well and add to the parched look of it all.

The light is harsh, maybe moved in closer and lost some of the foreground.

The whites are a bit overblown in this. Nice composition.

Very nice subject and good use of the tree as framin, but it is definitely too washed out for my tast. Also, I think it might look a little better if shot from a lower angle or maybe a little closer so that the tree does not cover the top of the roof. 6

Nice - looks like a painting. A lot of visual interest here, but maybe would do better if darkened a bit.

I bet there are a few red back spiders under the veranda and a snake or two as well. I remember the sound of rain (ever so rare I admit) on the corrugated tin roof. My mother, father and I drove the outback of Australia for the first years of my life in the 50s. 8.

too much saturation and the brightness is really hard on my eyes. I think this would be excellent in black and white and toned down a bit.
