							I can let the house perspective being tilted slide because it adds to the vulnerability angle you've got going. But seems like your background images are either too faded/saturated compared to the sharpness of your house area or vice versa.

							Nice idea...not sure that the bit at the top adds anything...otherwise, what Shaman said...

							Maybe it's just the extreme contrast of the straight lines with the rugged rock edge that makes it look a little 'cut-out'? But I like the tension of the whole piece.

							 @  Sean...I  destaturated  the  house  area  to  be  more  in  line  with  the  background  image,but  the  house  is  horizontal,it's  the  lawn  that's  on  a  slope  (check  it  yourself  with  a  right  angle  ruler).it's  a  bit  of  an  optical  illusion  I  guess.

							 @  mellow...the  floating  rock  over  the  house  adds  to  the  theme  of  vulnerability...it's  like  the  roof  could  come  down  on  the  planet  and  destroy  life  at  any  given  moment  (ie.  a  meteor  from  outer  space),this  is  a  metafor  after  all!    ;·)

							 Optical  Illusion  I'll  buy  that.  and  going  big  seems  to  take  care  of  most  of  the  saturation  I  was  talking  about...

							 I  guess  the  house  &  yard  seems  less  'hazy'?  I  think  thats  what  I'm  trying  to  get  at...
