Shack overlooking nole 002

I've been to this field twice, hoping for some clouds to go with the sun

rise. I live in Oklahoma and stumble on these abandoned old farm

houses which they just let nature take its toll on them. Any critique is

appreciated, thank you.

It's a sorry-looking shack, perfect for a photograph!  I like the vegetation in the background; I wonder if you could step to the left and pan to the right to get the vegetation closer to the left edge of the frame, just enough to put a very small space between the first shrub and the edge.  I think that would provide a natural stopping point for the horizon line.  If you think that would change the angle that you like on the shack too much, try using a longer lens and step back; that will lessen the change in angle required to get the shrubs moved over.  You're right about the clouds -- that's one of the keys for this photo, IMO, and one day you'll get lucky and hit it just right.  It's good that you can see what's needed, and now it's just a matter of persistence and being there at the right time.

Another interesting image. I wish we had more picturesque abandoned buildings here where I live. As for this image, yes the right sky and lighting can make a world of difference. I think a couple of steps to the left would improve the angles. That would take the block wall off the corner of the shack and the roof line. Also I feel the building is too close to the edge of the frame. I'd like to see a little more breathing room on that side. It seems open and expansive on the the left side and cramped on the right in comparison.
