This is definitely something I wasn't expecting to see in this contest, but the house is definitely leaning to the left. That's onw building you definitely have to be aware of when your around it. Great Thinking and Wonderful Shot! Good Luck in the Contest!

A dangerous situation.! This is an interesting shot. The house and the tractor makes it an interesting viewing. Fine composition, soft colours and very good light makes this first rate. Good luck!

A brilliant entry for this competition, showing how gravity (and bad building planning!) has slowly begun to pull this house to the left and sadly (by the looks of it) is damaging the structure eventually rendering it too unsafe to use, if it hasn't been condemned already!! great angle of the shot that clearly shows the topic title, good clarity and DOF and overall a great example of how easily nature can simply destroy months of hard and skilled work - I suspect the poles are too little too late! great shot and best of luck!

Me, being left eye blind will naturally see the subject aesthetically with a cross-lateral right sight!

An interesting initial impact.
Impressive capture!
Aptly captured for the contest theme... with the natural tilt giving us a dramatic image of this old house.

Sharply focused.
Subdued lighting.
Ideal framing.
Best of luck in the contest!

Thanks for sharing...

Wow! You exposure is perfect int his shot! The light and shadows are so well controlled with the white balance of the snow and the light coming from right frame. You have avoided deeps shadows expertly anywhere in this scene...sustaining the detail and clarity. This is such a pleasure to view. The interest of the leaning house on the hill is good. The wood is attractive . Again...well shot! An excellent entry for the contest! Good luck!

This may be a lost cause for the farmer. The bright sunshine and snow cover pops this scene very well. The documenting of this scene will allow you to go back and reshoot the demises of this old structure.

Comment from Zilyram


Yep would be rather concerned that it was going to keep sliding over if it were mine. Interesting looking old house would be a shame for it to collapse. Nice framing and good handling of exposure.

Very Cool!
I enjoy images of deteriorating old structures and vehicles and this fine photo of a 'leftward leaning' old house near the snowy woods looks Great in my opinion!
'Good Show',my friend!

Comment from Gail Ross


I love old buildings. I like to make up stories about them. This one definitely "needs repair". I think the owner tried to keep it from falling, but eventually gave up and left. The tractor looks very old and maybe wasn't worth taking. I would think they could get some money for the tires. Nice composition, focus and lighting.
