NICE colors! For minimalism it could do with the sharp branch on the right. Great shot.

Amazing colours, great focus, shallow DOF, love the composition .... this picture has big possibilities to grab a ribbon, though competition is going to be tough. Good luck :))

That's a pretty shot, but not minimalistic for me

I like this. I don't think I'd put the border on, but that's just me. Good exposure, sharp. Great subject. Bumping up.

Well here goes.
This image had a lot going for it. Well composed, nicely post-processed, nice colors and had a nice appeal with the green foliage on the porch roof.
Notice I said "had" a lot going for it. The frame you added in here, wasn't needed and actually took just a little away from the bldg. A simple 10 pixel solid white would have worked better or none at all in my opinion.
I still gave this image a 6 and would have scored it at least a 7 or 8 had it not been for the border. Please don't take offense, as this is only my personal opinion.
