I love simple compositions like this. Really excellent, Tracey.

This is really striking , Tracey. The limited tonal range and the composition, itself, make this a stand out image. The structure is very unusual looking, and there's nothing to judge its scale by (which is part of its charm). What is it?

@Andrew Gould: It is a very tall bird house, specifically built to house purple martins. Purple martins are beneficial to have around, as they eat many insects. Farmers around my way often build purple martin houses to help keep harmful insects away from the crops.

A very interesting shot. At first glance it didn't work for me, but the more i looked the more I liked. The simplicity of this is what I like. Nice one.

I love the minimal feel to this one - very different with very little contrast. Wonderfully done.....
