  1. Argh!!! I commented and then the browser deleted my comment when I hit publish....! Sorry it's going to be much shorter now.
    This one and the one below turned out good! Much better than the ones you did before.

    Notes for your house with the red roof and the blue one with the trees. Sunlight is very strong and will create sharp shadows and the lit planes will be very warm since it's a warm light while diffuse light will make shadows softer. In you piece with the house you have clear skies but the shadows are soft. That doesn't work. Also the contrast between shadow and lit side can be much greater. Your shadow side seems too bright and too warm. Since the sky is very blue you would expect a cool tone in the shadows. Spend a few more minutes studying the reference, how light affects each element of the picture.
