Perfectly framed by the trees. Great use of single saturation. That cloud!! WOW - this is almost surreal. Fantastic.

Very nice. I like that the subject is in color and actually stands out from the rest of the photo.

The desat of the blue sky was a good idea - the house really pops. 7

Great atmosphere, lovely contrast...subtle yet direct.

I really like this image, the desaturation of the blues & greens forces the focus on the house, which is not overdone
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Beautiful composition and nice post-processing.
Well Done!

I lkee this and the way the trees frame it dramaticly
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2005 11:08:43 AM
beautiful. Love your positioning, not centered but the angle of the building draws you into the center. The cloud adds a lot to it. How do you get b/w sky and trees with colored building with the rules for this challenge? Do you desaturate just blue and green?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Good job.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I very much like the symmetry of the image, that and having a thing for trees in winter. Perhaps the red a little overdone for the house, but the white cloud just above the roof adds another dimension to house framed between those two trees.

Drama! Pretty cool. Like the red amid all the gray.

I really like the subdued colors and the cold feel of this shot. The whole inage is well composed and wiull rank high with me. Good luck!

This photo doesn't interest me. The main subject should be an abandoned building but I see more landscape and sky then I do building. I like the editing work you have done and the photo has excellent colors and clarity but I personally would have liked to see more building.

Great angle and I like how you have used the trees to frame the house. Excellent shot!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I would have liked this cropped tighter, especially on the left.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/13/2005 09:55:02 AM
Gloomy sky, trees and grass, but the red brick draws you in. I like it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
