I must say I enjoy this image of the derelict cottage. Lots of teachers and college lecturers will insist that you never have the subject in the centre of your photograph or painting, you must allways have it placed in one of the thirds. Well when you know the rules you then know how to break them as I have done in this picture. The lonliness of the croft is accentuated by the space I have left surrounding it. The sky is not what I had hoped for, I was wanting a black stormy sky for this shot, just as it was when I left my holiday cottage first thing in the morning, but by the time I reached my destination the weather had changed and there was nothing but clear blue sky above. However I liked this building it had a nice face and although derelict it was welcoming, so I waited for cloud to appear. I hope you enjoy the result.
