Post Challenge Comment:

Thanks, all! The score of 5.7444 is about where I though it would end up. I just wish it were an Advanced Editing challenge, so that I could clone-out the power lines on the left side of the image.

My alternative title for this was "Vintage vs. Contemporary". I wanted to contrast the yellow, older structure against the newer, earth tone-colored homes.

This is in basically my "backyard" in Orange County, California, in the dead of winter. Ha! I had to wait until beach-goers (surfers, swimmers, etc.) got out of the way, so I could capture this image. This is in Newport Beach, and I live in Huntington Beach (next door). ;-)

Nice perspective, and I like the bright yellow and blue together. What's that tall modern squared off house doing on that nice old street?

I love how you showed that there is just a random yellow house among a ton of tan ones that all look alike! Good picture!
