1 door, 1 wall, 4 shots

[cw42]

I've been passing this wall and door for years, but on my last pass the sun was just at the right spot, and I didn't have my camera! So, a return trip yesterday came up with this little lot:
1/

2/

3/

4/


Do you feel there's anything more I can do with those?

Ok firstly i havn't taken a photo in a while and i'm definately no proffessional but i will give you my honest opinion.
Great subject matter, i love walls.
1/for me this is the best shot although not the most exciting. I think you should have focused on the door handle and tilted the camera to the right slightly. This would bring a little more of the door in and show off some of those reds from the brick. Also bring the left and right slightly more into focus and capture some of those shadows inbetween the brick.

2/This is a little washed out for me being neither one nor the other . The sky and btops of the bush do nothing for the photoghaph so leave them out. maybe capture a little more of the foreground grass and add interest by looking up at the wall more.

3/ There is no clear point of reference here so remember your rule of thirds. Maybe even try a bit of sepia tone.

4/ Interesting and exciting with just the right balance. If i was nitpicking i would say bring the door handle up a cm and adjust the colour etc to reveal just a tad more red.

Once again i am no expert but i do like walls.
Good job

Thanks for the feedback guys. Number 4 had to be cropped as I had a polarizer on at the time, and although I didn't spot it through the viewfinder, when I came to process the raw, there was a definate circular shadow around the image
Number 3 is my fave, and I figured the dark area was the focal point, almost like you came out of the white door, but had the darkness not so far away

Thanks again.
