From: "Daniel J. Matyola"
I have be photographing some of our local landmarks. I have been
trying to vary the images from the usual head on shot of the
buildings. This one has been a bit difficult for me, because of the
surroundings. I tried to use the fence across the street as a visual
lead-in, but I'm not sure whether I like this one or not/
Comments, criticisms and suggestions welcome.

The leading line does draw your eye to the parsonage, but the image is
unbalanced with so much space taken up on the right by that hedge and
the lawn in the foreground. The subject is squashed into the upper left
hand quarter of the image.
If you moved two thirds the distance to the road, and perhaps moved out
a little more to your left, you could still shoot it with the fence as a
leading line. That might also move the overhead power/telephone lines up
and possibly out of the image.
I think you'd have a more pleasing image.
A square crop based on the current left edge would maintain the leading
line, and get rid of most of the hedge, but still won't do anything
about not having enough space to frame the subject on the left.
