Nice colours and composition, Robin. I like the contrasted two-colour sky and subjects. It´s very pleasant shot. Maybe some frame is missing. Good work...

Colours are good and very nicely framed. Detail has been captured well in the cloud without creating other problems elsewhere.

Great low angle. Nice and sharp. Good sky colours too. Well seen and taken.

Grat composition. That's a beautiful sky. It matches the ground nicely. Both simple yet not plain. Really great colors. And in the middle the tattered house and the bare tree really complete the scene beautifully. A tattered and neglected feel really come out in this scene like they are just scraping by with their conservation efforts. Nicely done.

Beautiful picture. The colors are so rich and vibrant and the sky provides a lot of drama.

This is well shot in terms of exposure and focus.

I think it might have worked better as a pano, a bit less on the bottom and more added to the right. As it is it feels a bit 'center heavy' to me.

Excellent lighting, nice view, I wish the left tree wasn't cropped, but that's not a big deal

Well done: very interesting clouds and lighting. The deep blue behind the tree is especially nice.

About the framing, mightbe a bit more to the left would have been better:
* the end branches of the tree would not have been cut;
* the house would and tree would then have been on the force lines of the picture (1/3 - 2/3)

This is amazing Robin!
You've used all the elements perfectly, and together with the light it's just great.
The tones and exposure are perfect!

Wonderful photo. This remined me immediately about the painting Catherine it is called i think. Its an american painting with a girl suffering from polio in the freground. Anyway, a wonderful photo with a simple subject. Yet in all its simplicity you have made a wonderfull photo with great combination of colours.

Thank you Robin for this vue of a modest farm, lost some where in Colorado. It shows part of US from the inside, so rarely seen in the European media, and far from the usual stereotypes. The blue of the sky and the sunny wall slice with the desolation of the rest. Cheer for this composition which provides food for thought...

Another good shot Robin. Reminds me of a horror movie set. One of those recent Hollywood films where a group of teens go to a location for some unbeknown reason and they begin to get picked off one by one and with these recent films- 1 gets away so there is a sequel.
Good colour contrast and composition. A good sense of isolation and coldness also.
Well done.
