I was driving by this place today, it is now a bulldozed flat lot, no more clutter, I think I will see a big new house soon.

When I went to take this picture, I intended to shoot the burned out house in front but this out building was more inviting with all the clutter, thanks for all your constructive and nice comments.

Very nice picture and... good Title except for the "Chaotic" part. Should have left it out. 7.

I think it looks like a great place to dig for interesting objects...one person's trash is another's treasure! For some reason it really doesn't have a "despair" feeling...it's too pretty a shot!

Excellent composition. Excellent exposure. Great sharpness. Missing a bit of wow in it... but good. 7/10

I don't know - that shed looks pretty secure to me - the doors are not hanging off of their hinges. Just because someone can't keep their yard clean, does not speak despair to me. There are plenty of unkempt yards in my area. Nice photo though. Would probably look good in sepia.

Excellent framing and composition and saturated colors that keep the eye interested. So far after perusing these images, I've noticed that a lot of people have taken the challenge description and used it to not pay attention to basic, good photography principles. You took a photo of an ugly situation, brought feeling across, and made it interesting to the eye with composition and lighting. Nice work. 9
