Shack or shed needs more focus and should take up more room in the photo if it's to be the main subject.

I think this would have been better taken from a different angle so that the road and guard rail weren't in the picture and the subject (the shack) was more noticeable

needs more focus on the house.

Very sad.

took me a while to see it looks like a hobbits house if hobbits where hobos. I would like a closer perspective as it is a bit lost

nice pic, too nice. the beauty of the surroundings takes the focus away from the real picture though.

this kindda reminds me of the hills in Puerto Rico, especially with the Royal Poinciana there.

Looks like an old fruit stand at a bus stop to me.

Hmm well the 'poverty' which I assume is the old shack doesn't appear to be the focus. At first I was just caught up in the rollling hillside and never even saw the shack!

Maybe the photo size requirements got you with this one. The setting is too beautiful and poverty of the dwelling is barely visible from the distance. Not quite a strong enough representation of the challenge.

Good scenery but can't see much of the "shack"

The pretty landscape really detracts from the poverty message imo. Beautiful photo though.

I think I might have cropped this a little tighter, though I see that the expanse of hillside tends to emphasize the shack.

nice shot! great color.

The sky attracts my eyes. Soe does the green hill. Tree and road-border too. With so much attraction I tend to miss the POINT of this pic which probably should be the hut.
Quility could be a tad better too

Beautiful hill.
