The house is just the right size for the frame and what's going on here. I mean, one could either pull way back, and it might work. Or get in real close, and that might work, too. But this way, you get enough detail of the house, yet you get it in it's proper context, and still get those beautiful fluffy white clouds against that lovely blue sky.
I love the comp - putting the house near the bottom (yet stll leaving in enough grass to let us know that it's probably not been entered in decades) is obvious (good obvious <g>). But, what blows me away is getting it off-centre a bit, just off to the right. Lovely! I don't know why, but it just works so nicely for me.
There's not a bad thing I can say about this evocative photo, Dave (not that I was looking for anything bad to say <g>). Wonderful work!
thanks, frank
