DSS#93 Decision Time

KevXman

I've narrowed my choices down to two, but still can't decide which to enter for the current challenge (Old or New). I like each for its own merits but could use your help. Also, if you can think of a better title for either that would be great too. Thanks in advance.

Shelter


Thanks for looking.

Yes, I was definitely thinking out house when I saw #2. Not sure it says "old" if titled shelter though. The subject in #1 has potential but it would be great to see it from a different, lower angle.

I prefer #1. I wish you were a little more straight on the skull. But I like the textures in this photo.

Thanks for the comments everyone! I took your suggestions and went back for a reshoot. This is what I have entered.

Oh, and the shelter, it's not an outhouse but actually a bus stop shelter. Probably a school bus stop shelter for the kids that live(d) in the house just out of frame to the right. I doubt if it has been used at all recently. The bench on the inside has completely fallen apart. Thanks again.

Looks good. I like being able to see a bit more of the eye sockets in this one. And I figured that the shelter had another use because of its position outside the fence, but bears a resemblance to outhouses I've seen in more remote parts of Africa.
