Greetings from the Critique Club };-) First, let me congratulate you on your first submission, very nice!
Initial thoughts
Interesting composition, meets the challenge, Nice colors.
Composition/ Content
Very nice shot, I like the warm colors which appear to come from a setting sun. An interesting shot especially after reading your explanation. The house almost appears huddled against the cold. The setup seems good, i like the placement of both the gate and window in your shot.
Background
It is a bit cluttered, although you could normally not do a lot about it, there was a possiblity of cloning out both the red fence on the left and red barn-like structure on the right during this challenge which I feel would make a better shot.
Camera Work - Technical
Focus seems good as is the contrast for this light level. I wish that I had a better idea of how large the house is. This may have been a good shot to have someone standing out front, especially in traditional garb to use as a reference in that respect.
Digital Processing - Technical
I wonder why you entered a relatively small photo with relatively low file size. You have a great camera that would really show up well by using all of the alloted file size and photo size. I think a dark border may have really brought out your blues and golds in this shot as well.
Fits The Challenge
Fits the challenge well, although a tighter shot of a door or window would have scored better in my opinion.
My Opinion On The Photo
I think a little more size as mentioned may have helped this shot score better. I think that it meets the challenge well but could have been improved a little to finish even higher than it did. Good job, welcome, and keep up the good work.
I would be happy to talk further about this shot if you would like to contact me.

| Cool colours! I wish this photos was a little bigger, but I'm sure lots of people have said that. The composition is really, really strong. I love it. Despite the smallness, I'm giving it 10. |

| I like the colors in this and the framing. I think if it were sharper it would be great. |

| This pic needs to be a little sharper and maybe a little bigger wouldn't hurt. - Inspzil |

| I think this is a bit far away from the subject to keep intrest, but that is just me. |

| Good afternoon color, and clear background. If this is really an occupied house, the residents are tougher than I am. I like this photograph for subject, composition and color. |

| Wow, what a bright shot. An interesting building, but I really would have liked more emphasis on the window/door. |

| the focus seems to be on the house itself, not the window or door.. a tighter shot with one or both objects as the focus would lend itself to the challenge |
