Greetings from the Critique Club!

Initial impression: nice colours, great dof, like the fishing net hung next to the door, it adds interest to the shot.

Technical: Good use of ambient lighting, like the shadow on the door. Composition is a bit centred with the house exactly between the trees; however the door being a bit offset adds interest to the pic. Tonemapping works well. Wondering if those 'smudges' to left of door are actually on wall or blurred-out shadows.

Artistic: Visually a pleasing picture, but the pov and composition makes photo look safe, for want of a better word. Safe does work on dpc, though. I would have given this a 6 in voting.

Good work and you finished well, keep shooting, don't be afraid to experiment with different angles and perspective. Personally I am a fiend for shooting at low, extreme angles; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Depends on how much risk you are willing to take - are you shooting for yourself, or dpc?

Feel free to PM me with any questions.

Susan

Colors are a little muddy and the contrast harsh. Interesting building though.

Cute caption, neat colors, bricks and tiles... and the tree shadows are almost like spray paint effect on the walls.

cool shot...this is excellent...I wonder what it would look like off center (tilted)...it is so very "level"
