| a bit flat/ dull... maybe if you'd gotten closer and isolated a small section of the building ? |

| On my monitor I can't see the brick because the image is too dark. I'd also like to see it off-center. Sure does meet the "something old" challenge though. |

| An uninspired composition; appears to be poorly lit. |

Something old. Use your photographic technique to emphasize the age of your subject.
Composition - good. Did you try tighter crops?
Technical Aspects - pretty good
Meets Challenge - yes
Visual Impact / Originality - good

| The colours are somewhat dull. It just looks like someone hit the mute button on it :-(. It really need a sunnier day I think but you might have been able to do something with Photoshop or similar. |

| A closer view of the "old brick" might have been effective to really give the sense of the brick. The sense of brick doesn't really show up here---maybe its just my monitor, but I would like to see the detail better. |

| Getting the picture from an angle where the sun is reflecting off the side of the building would help with the detail. |

| It seems to have been a very dark gloomy day. |

| Prefer if it were not centered so precisely, and if the sky was more interesting. Like the soft focus. 5 sjgleah |

| This is a GREAT picture! I love the look of it out there all alone! You have a good eye! |

| It's a great subject but you took this at a time of day that cast very little light on this side of the building. As a result we can't see any details on the subject. Nicely framed by that open countryside though. |

| dark! building is in dis-repair, but it's hard to see it. I think the left side appears to be the most broken down, could you have taken this shot from that side of the building? If your camera supports spot metering, this might have been a good time to use it. 6 Swash |

| Good subject. Very unfortunate underexposure. Meter to center or AF area. Matrix metering held this one back. |

| Theres not much you can do about that bright sky without waiting for the weather to change. Maybe you could have taken this at dusk. |

| This could possibly have benefitted from there being a little more light on the foreground. |

| Nice subject, but I would like to see your composition follow the thirds rule here as well as more exposure. If the building were offset to one side and the bricks exposed more to bring them out in your picture it would be sooo much nicer. Autool |

| I like the softer focus, generally, but I think a little sharper focus might have shown the details better. Also, I think you need to be a little closer, so that it fills up the frame more. karmat |

| Cool old house but not a great photo - back lighting doesn't work. Slightly end-on angle doesn;t work for me, either exagerate the angle or straighten it. maybe something else could have been in the dead center? Like maybe the white boarded window? |

| a little out of focus and moving it off center would help the composistion. |

| A little too dark; a hair blurry. |

i see two major problems with this photo. the first is the lighting, it is just a bit too dark to get any detail in the walls. the second is the composition. the straight-on... "here's a picture of an old house" look just doesn't interest me visually. the subject matter meets the challenge, it just wasnt presented in a very engaging manner. ~mcmurma

| would be better if you increased exposure on house to show details, texture |

| Not very clear, too dark maybe.. |

| Auto metering was a little off here.You should play around with it a little. The building is very" back lit" this fools the meter and usually ends up with an under exposed subject. Try to keep the sky out of the picture unless the sun is behind you and shining on the subject. |

| I love the setting here. It's little too dark to see detail. I may have also avoided centering this or taken it from closer in and at a more diagonal angle. Lisa |

| This would have been a better photo if you had taken it under different lighting conditions. The sky is burnt out and there is not enough light on the building to see any details. |

| Thiis comes up too dark. Maybe if you were a little bit closer? |

| I think you should add more contrast so that the grey fog effect dissapears, but this is a good photo that shows an old house. |

| This is a good shot of an old building... the exposure doesn't show much detail... maybe the lighting was behind the building... this photo needs some more color punch to really stand out :) - jmsetzler |
