I like the picture's color, texture and light. The "non-horizontalness" of the wall doesn't bother me, the tree does a little bit, maybe because its angle is the opposite of the shadows...? The angle of the shadows going across the picture really grabs my attention. I was wondering, what is at the top of the wall, and how high is it? If you took a step back, would your picture include some grass on top of the wall as well as the grass at the bottom? Of course, I probably have no idea what I'm saying, but that might make for an interesting contrast of texture. anyways, no offense from the amateur. :o)
