So I knew it was risky but I legitimately thought this shot was unique, despite me entering a similar, less unique shot a few weeks ago...
That was a horizontal composition shot on a different occasion and sure that was nothing new, but I've been here 4 years and dont recall a vertically oriented house shot like this with a leading trail, distortion, exotic colors, etc.
I know of course the subject matter is not unique but I thought I captured it in a unique composition & manner - I didn't think this challenge was about literally taking pictures of obscure objects.
Incidentally here is a version I may have liked better taken at the beginning of last month :D

Not voting quite yet, but I'm afraid I'm not understanding why this would fall under "never before seen". We've seen a lot of pictures of houses, paths and trees. The shot actually seems quite common on that regard.
That being said--I wish I came across this photo in a free study or in a different challenge. I like the photo very much. The colors, the feel, the house are all wonderful. I'm afraid it just doesn't fit this challenge.
Not sure how unique it is but it's a gorgeous shot. I like how the house seems to be leaning to one side, like it's getting ready to topple over. Gorgeous colours and sky.
ooh, lovely find. Nice path leading up to the house. How much of the distortion was caused by the lens and how much is real? Either way its a great shot and you captured it with a nice sky to boot. Good luck!
I like the image very much. The processing is good, too.
There is a bit of unease about it that I couldn't figure out for a while... Then I saw that it's the 'leading line' of the beautiful rock walk that leads my eye OUT of the photo and past the subject. It's a struggle to get back in to the subject. Maybe I'm just odd though. I've been told that before. :) (not voting)
What a beautiful house and shot well. The inclusion of the path belongs perfectly where it is, leading the eye to the distorted house which reminds me of a scene out of a Tim Burton movie. The effect is enough to qualify this to fit the theme, since distortion is always avoided usually.
Awesome shot. I'd probably give it at least a 7 in a free study. In this challenge, it gets a 4. This is just way too cliche DPC for this challenge. Wide angle, cool building, over saturated, same ol' same ol'.
Are you AP??
This house just appeared on the duotones challenge.
Sorry, but this DNMC for sure. I like the leading line, the colours, etc. But this just appeared on DPC.
