 a reshoot of my barn on the horizon that i originally did in IR for a previous challenge. I am pretty sure that this will tank and get hit with some DNMC and haters of vast negative space.

I like the idea of using something other than a red m&m set against stark white poster board, and this image is well done. I think it's a bit of a stretch for the challenge however, with the power lines and trees and other terrestrial elements beyond "the barn." Had this same shot been just the green-roofed structure set on a prarie or bare hillside against the sky as composed ... it'd be a winner.

This would be even better had you place the structure a little off centered. Perhaps there were obstacles you were avoinding.

This is just me, but there's too much stuff at the bottom to be a really minimalist composition. Also, the portrait orientation feels very awkward.

Would have been more striking if the sky was a deep blue to contrast the green of the land. The telephone poles and wires are also a bit distracting.
