 Taken on a rainy day off Rte. 11 in Buchanan, VA of an old abandoned house that I pass every day on the way to work. I had to reduce the pixel size in order to meet the requirements, so forgive me if I screwed it up by doing so - it was pretty good at 2400+ pixels - LOL.

Could have been cropped tighter on left.

Nice composition and nice coloring. Not scored high, because it isn't drawing my empathy for its abandonment. (probably sounds as silly reading it, as it does writing it, but the word "abandoned" should pull something from the viewer.)

great house! Can't believe the red paint still shines through. The image seems a little oversharpened but other than that, pretty good!

Lovely composition and clarity! I can almost see how busy it was around this home at one time :)

The colors really add to the appeal of the picture
