House on Main
by foto-baja-mex

Bangor Maine

The wide angle wasn't wide enough and there were other houses behind me.

I agree with Clay and Laura, and had written a paragraph explaining what I meant, but when I finished, I hit the tab key by mistake and the add comment button vanished and my comments got lost.

I had suggested to move more to the front of the house to allow more perspective and keep the house from sliding down that hill...

It did it agaiin, but this time I cut and repasted the above... sheesh :-)

On first glance I like the framing of the photo. The tree to the left and a bit of the bush on the bottom. Beyond that the sky is a bit too bright which seems to be causing a bit of chromatic abberations along the roof line. The 'leaning' of the house seems a bit unsettling as well. With the very dark front door it also appears as if the main subject is the upper floor of the house.

I believe the subject has potential but it is lacking with the current processing.

That is a very attractive house, B. It's kind of unfortunate that there wasn't a prettier sky, but that's not something you had control over. Since the sky is white anyway, I think I'd lighten the house a bit more, either levels or shadow/highlights to bring out the color more. Although the vertical line on the left side is straight, somehow the perspective seems a bit off. I think I'd play around with ithat a bit too.
