hello Karen.
what a lovely old house.A nicely composed shot. The colours are so natural and you have resisted the temtptation to over saturate.
best regards,
Bev

Karen, nice capture, I think your improvement continues. Do you find that you are seeing things differently because of your course? Keep up the great work.

Hello Karen,
Looks a very charming house; I particularly like the roof. I like how you have placed it in the frame and the inclusion of the surrounding countryside. Also, the gold and green tones of the grassland, which are nicely complemented by the pale blue sky. Very good sharpness.

Good natural colours with an excellent composition showing the old house on the right. The faint curving tracks are enough to lead our eye towards it. Well done

Hallo Karen!
A wonderful and very atmospheric photo as well ... and a somehow touching one - considering that this formerly has been a home. A special and not everyday photo ...
Greetings from very hot Germany!

Hi Karen,
Very good colours with this brownish, dry grass and that old house. When were all these houses abandoned? How old are they? Has everyone left the countryside here to live in the city? There seems to be a lot of these old houses here!
Kind regards
Gunnar

Hi Karen,
I like your perspective and composition on this old beauty, good light and well saturated colors, but I don't think your choice of framing color does anything for your image. Thanks for sharing. Gerald

Hello Karen,
This is absolutely lovely - if it wasn't for the certain sadness of seeing yet another abandoned house. But the building seems to have been such a nice place long ago, and the surroundings are fine. It's a very well composed picture with great colors and sharpness.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Karen -

This is very nice. I like the saturated colors against the old building and the power blue sky. I also like the composition and your decision to offset the building was the right choice. Well done!

Thank you for sharing.

John

Hi Karen

Good sharpness, colour, framing, & warm cold colour contrasts, between the dry yellow grass / red & brown old barn, & the blue sky. Enjoy Vancouver!

Bonjour Karen,
j'aime les photos qui me transportent dans ces belles plaines canadiennes, tellement typiques tant par la flore que par les fermes qui y furent construites.
Une photo avec de belles couleurs champêtres.
Cheers.
Daniel.

Hi Karen. This looks half barn and half house. Nice composition, you have included enough BG to put the house into perspective. Good handling of light also. Thanks for sharing.
Have a good Sunday, Paul.
