| Absolutely remarkable. It's a great subject in itself, but the execution is excellent as well. Sometimes great subjects are ruined by the execution. Not here. |

| That's home? Cool. Fanatastic view, but the internet bandwidth probably stinks. |

| This reminds me of my favourite spot on my favourite scottish island. There is a white house at the base of the mountains there with a red tin roof and it just looks in the middle of nowehere like the one in your shot...only 3 months to go till I'm next there! |

| It sure gives a sense of scale! The mountainside looks enormous and the home so tiny. Beautifully seen. |

| a little dark on the mountain...your house looks 3D...like it is "placed" there...but the colors are appealing |

| Nice highlight on house, interesting use of shadow behind it. This looks like a very nice location, but in some pretty rugged territory. |

| Voted earlier coming back to leave comments. There, at the foot of the behemoth mountain, there rests a small and humble home. It is not large by any size but it is warm & cozy and is surrounded by a lush valley of green. When I look upon your composition that is the description that leaps out at me. I also see this as perhaps a commentary on man and nature. Man's works as represented symbolically by the house is small in comparision to the works of nature which is seen in this monster of a mountain. Put that aside the view while you were there must have been spectacular to behold - the wide open valleys and these tall, majestic soaring mountains! The ideas behind the composition are good but it could be even better if some elements in the composition itself were improved. The whole mountain in the frame would be best but then we would probably only see the house as a small speck. Not how you want to present your photo I think. Keeping with the idea of the house remaining small but visible beneath this mountain you could add more visual interest in having the mountain cut across the photo at a diagonal. Lining up the foot of the mountain to start at the bottom left the slope then travels up the diagonal to end with the 'top' of the mountain in the top right corner. The other possible way to improve the look, presentation and visual appeal is to give a slight boost to the contrast and saturation levels. NOT too much mind you, just a tad for it looks a bit washed out (at least on my monitor it does). I think the tones and contrast could be a little more richer. |

| What an amazing place. Is that the road in the back to get there? I'd car car sick everytime I'd go somewhere. Nice light. |

| Amazing contrast between the house and the mountain. The photo really gives you a feel for how massive the mountain slope is. |

| What an amazing back yard! The setting is incredible, but could use a little bit in color and lighting dynamics. |

| Great scale, great capture, but the clouds could use a little work in terms of contrast. |
