In a way I sort of like the power lines. It's historic England... with power! When I think of historic England I think of candles and button flap PJ's. It's nice to see that you guys have power there now, heh.
A solid image evoking the theme of rural England. A nice pleasing font with the gentle sweep into the border shoulnd't work but it does. Nice and crips image with plenty of detail.
I wish I owned that house. hahah. I love those houses. A little out of focus for me and always always get rid of the telephone wires and other distractions like the pole on the dirt road and the antenna on the house in advanced editing but I still love the scene.
Such a shame that you left the power lines in .. they rather distract, particularly from the 'historic' element. It was advanced editing so it would have been ok to clone those out. Otherwise a lovely card, good composition and nice leading line through it with the lane.
