This has a very personal value for me too. It was taken in a small turkish village in the middle of Georgia. You can't met warmer or lovelier people than them.
In all desperatness I chose this shot out of a hundred better shots. This is what happens when I'm confused. I end up with a very bland kind of shot. Meh.

i like the derelict nature of the building a lot, and the post processing suits the ambience perfectly. the burning around the edges is a bit obviously fake, but it fits with the style of the high contrast and bright colours. composition is very nice; i like where the building is in relation to the surroundings muchly. the choice of subject is really good too; the building is obviously kackered, and it has character and you feel there is narrative here. the bushes in the background seem a bit grey / dudged compared to the rest of the setting. love the green grass against the building and the grey skies. nicely stylish - 9.
Beautiful processing. the grass looks so lush and soft I wanna dive in. that building has a lot of interest too and great job of burning the edges to draw the eye in. 8
