Wouldn't meet the challenge. ;)

This is actually a really interesting subject, nicely taken as usual. Light is is just a little flat but there's plenty to look at. I'd agree with the crop on the vase, but I like it as it is.

Strange house!!
Nice photo.
Colour, focus & composition are good.
Maybe cropping out the vase on the left of the building whould help balance the composition

The Entrance is unreal i really like this place. I just think you done to much editing on this picture or at least that what I think it looks kind of blurry. and if it was me what I notice kind of extraordinary here is the pineapple cupule. so you shoud it focus more on that. the dark clouds make this pic a little boring too. Good try

What a beautiful building. I love the soft colors. A bit of the sky looks overexposed near the pineapple, but lovely shot.
