This is just so inviting isn't it. I just want to go there and feel that atmosphere. You've posed and captured this really well. I've only just noticed the powerlines, they're insignificant because the image is so strong. If it's not scoring as well as you expected, I could only think that if there was less at the top and more at the bottom that it might put the house on the bottom-left thirds intersection and have even more impact than now. I can't remember if we can clone out stuff like the power lines in Advanced editing but it would be easy to do for a display print - which it is worthy of

Didn't like the powerlines and the hill behind, a tighter crop might have worked :)

Coulda shoulda cloned out the wires, IMO - other than that a nice shot, but still generally lacks any specific interest for me.

nice country looking setting. I think the powerlines detract from the feeling but they are hard to get past sometimes.

I think if you reduced the noise and perhaps sharpen this a bit it might look better.

I'd have removed a few of the hotspots, also the focus / dof doesn't make this photo very pleasing to the eye

Softer light would have worked better. The flash seems too harsh.

The idea is nice, but the light spots on the chocolate are not very pleasant
