nice capture...I might like it a little more if it weren't so symetrical

very nice colors. good job. My only suggestion (and one I have trouble with myself ) is to try cropping the top to either bring in more sky or remove it all together. The little bit that's there seems distracting. 6

just a small crop - barely inside the rooftop.

Beautiful, jewel-like, inspiring.

Perhaps I am overimressed with genius in simplicity, but be that as it may, I love this photo for its simplicity. I like the textures of the wall, the grass, the wildflower, and the musty stuff growing on the wall. But what drew me to the photo was the sunlit patch of wildflowers framed by the dark wooden window.

This is the slightest quibble, but I would have cropped out the sky. In fact, I think the photo looks fine with only the merest hint of roof.

Great composition. But I do feel that you could actually get rid of the bit at the top where you see the background. What I like about is how the coop acts as a screen. The foreground with beautiful colours are again seen though the window like it's been projected there. I really like this one.

think I would have cropped the top but overall I really like this image

Love the lighting through the window. The cropping feels a little bit tight, but, I still like the photo a lot.

Lovely flowers and view thru chicken wire. A sharpen might improve the image a bit.

Doesn't look abandonded enough. Like the bright color in the foregroud and in the background viewed through the window.

Lovely!

In my opinion the flowers aren't needed and could have been cropped out. Also as it is there is nothing to suggest that this building is abandoned.
