    A very old shed

    I liked this shot but the top left corner bothers me and I'm not good enough with imaging tools to correct - any advise appreciated.

    This shot dosent do anything for me, it would be more pleasable if it was alittle less tight on the right side of the building, and the top left can be doged i think to make it standout a little less

    Re: A very old shed

    I think this picture is lacking a focus at the moment. My eye is drawn to the interior of the shed, but then it sort of roams around this big empty space looking for something interesting to settle on.

    As a subject I think this building has lots of potential though. The wood on the right hand side has a lovely soft worn look that could justify a closer study. It looks like there are lots of places where wood, bricks and leaves all meet, and that could also make a nice study in contrasting textures. If you can get back there I'd be interested to see what you can come up with.

    regards

    Thanks - you hit the nail on the head - and I thought it was the light in the top left.

    However, It might be difficult to get a better shot from another angle as I took this from over a barbwired fence and standing next to a hole in between two hawthorne trees - prickly little devils.

    I will see if I can get permission of the owner to get access to the shed.
