neighbor's garage

I took this one a while ago

I'm not so sure about this photo.
The sky is way too white, washed out. But you've also centered the garage/subject so theres not much left to the imagination... at least in my opinion. I think it'd be neat if you did something with the window, like shoot from under at an angle and slightly off center it; have just the window be your main focus. If you know what I'm trying to say...

I like it, but I agree, the composition isn't the best, and I didn't even think about the sky.

How's this version look?

I would crop the top of the picture even more, you have something here but it is lacking, if you had a figure in the window that might add, also not convinced that b&w is working completely in this shot.

Thanks herriot, I think I have a better idea of what it was I liked about it. I think this third version of it captures what I wanted a little better, although I'm going to retake it once I get the chance.

Oooh your third picture really is much better. The feel in the picture is quite good: It feels very isolated and lonely. My one suggestion would be that, since the picture is set up so as to draw the eye over the gate and through the window, there should be something in the window. A person, a book, a flower, a whatever. Just something to justify the journey the eyes make. Other then that I think it's quite good

Thanks Adelais! A light just flicked on in my head, your comment was very helpful.
