    Farm Buildings

    Also not much of a landscape or architecture photographer. Really feel like I had great light here, exposed it nicely and got a great sky... and yet I look at this and think "meh." Just feels bland to me and not much too it. Maybe I'm just overly critical of myself... any suggestions and C&C are really welcome here. This is an area I'd really like to understand and improve.

    I think you are too close the buildings which are not that attractive by themselves and needed more landscape

    I like it myself, but I think a spot of color or another subject (flower, chicken, etc.) would enhance it.

    Put GB's model in the pink bikini on the lawn in the center and that would take care of it nicely :lol:

    Seriously, I like the composition and the subject, but I think the color could be punched up a bit to make it "pop" better (trough a vibrance adjustment, saturation boost, or adding a multiply layer with very low opacity).

    Yeah I think just a touch wider would help some. I think the processing is very good. I think in the long run the new metal roof kind of takes away from the rest of the scene. Maybe get closer I really like the windows leaning in.
