icedancer: Congratulations on 2nd place - way to go my friend

casechaser: Yes, it is a candidate for the current contest but what a contestant it would be if the challenge was "geometry." You have all the best elements; triangles, squares, rectangles, diagonal lines, and a near-hidden trapezoid. You have everything in this picture to make anyone a happy Euclid.

Please, if you buy this lovely fixer-upper let me know. I have already purchased a very hearty protractor (with a 6" ruler edge) for you as a house warming present. :)

3rd place
Composition of Decomposition by gr8fulted

Dunstickin: Well done for 3rd place Ted...it was one I voted on!...

icedancer: Way to go on the 3rd place, job well deserved - Bravo

corngrowth: Brilliant composition/capture, Ted!
S+F instantly. Thanks!

Nikoneer: That lower chimney that is tilting away from the structure appears to be a material printed with "bricks"... while everything else is in a massive state of dereliction, the edges of the chimney are arrow-straight, with no chipping, and the color of the bricks are consistent. If they were real, they could never be held up merely by a pair of 2x4's sticking out from the side of the house. Appearances tell me the rooftop chimney is made of the same material... tin, maybe? Whatever the case, the more modern additions--the chimneys and the No Trespassing and Private Property signs--don't remove any of the charm; they complement it. That gorgeous landscape behind it doesn't hurt, either.
