Even the sky looks pink. White balance a bit off.

Composition: Interesting angle of shot. Could do with rotating a few degrees counter-clockwise.
Technical: The over-exposed sky draws the eye quite a lot. The whole pic is in focus, so you could have focused high up on the building so the camera thinks "oh, it's bright", then drag the camera down with the button half pressed. This would mean the sky isn't so white. Otherwise, the colouring is quite nice.
Meets challenge: Mostly.
Overall impression: Good effort. Practice with exposure will help a lot.

There isn´t any one thing that really draws the eye too, and there is no real point which is interesting in the picture. The pic should have been rotated a bit to correct the tilt and the crop does not do it for me.

The whole pink tint is too much. It even seems to color the brown shingles.

It̢۪s a slightly asymmetrical. I think you should have either gone completely asymmetrical or totally symmetrical. Slightly asymmetrical looks a little odd.

Might have been better had you shot at a vertical angle and gotten more of the house in the shot. Let's see more of this cool old house! Your old house certainly fits the challenge. You've got some good shadows and detail here.
