It's the only Brick house on the leftby

A very well maintained house. Good bushes, nice grass, pleasant to look at for sure. It's the kind of shot you'd see in a House For Sale ad. I'm not realy sure about the 'creative' part of the challenge though. Someone stated that it looks like a snapshot, and while I think it's a step further than a snapshot, I don't think it you have gone out of the way for creativity.
Technically though, you hit this right on the mark. My only technical complaint would be that the sky in the background is a bit white out, and bright on the building in the background.
Focus and clarity are really great. Love the detail in the brick and the white stair rails. Nice crisp lines.
The angle and framing/cropping are nice to display the house at. We get to see the main elements. Door, brick, window, and stairs. We can tell that it's more than single story, however, are close enough to get the real detail, rather than the overall size.
The lighting looks ok for the detail and for not getting bad shadows or bright spots on the house. The far windows are showing a little reflection, however, nothing real serious. The only real lighting problem I see is that hot spot in the back on that other building.
The title does work nicely. Reminds me definately of home cause that's kind of like we tell people where our house is.
I have a question. Did you remove the flag for the photo? I know how some people complain about flags in photos. Could have been one of those seasonal flags though. Anyway, I think you did a good thing to remove the flag, even though it is part of your home, because it would have been in the way to see your actual home.
Overall, technically, it's quite good, little to complain about, but it just doesn't stand out to me more than that.
