Something Old and Blue (C&C Welcome)

[Trblmkr]

I walked by this house several times and each time I would stop and look at it. There is something about the lines and the "ying-yang" that kept making me want to look at it. The Ying-Yang.. well Right side clouds are almost full, left side is broken up. Ride side of the roof is relatively clean, left side is rusted. Right side of the bottom 1/3 is clean, the left side, more dirty grungy.

And before anybody says "it would have been better if you got all of the roof!" Well I couldn't. My back was up against the wall of the building across the street using my 55-200mm kit lens, and my 18-55 was 2 miles away in the car. So I did the best I could with what I had on the camera. At least my lines are straight

Thanks for looking and commenting.

FWIW: In my opinion, you don't need to go into so much detail in trying to "sell" the image. If the composition is right, just put it out there. Some will see the reason you captured the image, others might not.

I'd like to see more of the building in order to grasp what you're trying to present. From this viewpoint I see a rather nondescript house top with two boarded up windows. More of a ying-ying as even the yang in this picture looks rundown. Try to get a shot with the roof. It does sound like it could be an interesting photo just didn't nail it with this one.
