I would have liked to see more detail of the house and fewer bushes in the front.

I like the subject and the composition. Not real fond of the lighting or color.

I like this photograph, although not sure if the building is quite on the mark for poverty, could be the car on the right. I know a few people who have dropped out of society and live like this. But, it is a graphic shot, Good Luck.

A little too dark. The pole in the foreground is a little distracting. Maybe a better angle at the home would have worked better

The fence post? stake? in the foreground is highly distracting. I'm guessing this was taken from a vehicle? Nice feel to the photo though.
