Composition question

siumaibb

I found this picture on flickr and I think the composition / lighting / WB are very good. But there is a little thing that bugs me is the wooden fence in the lower left corner. It is kinda distracting but if I cover it up the picture suddenly lose the depth.

Do you think it should be included in the frame and why?

Umm.. I've done no changes.. other than lowering the resolution.. maybe LYK screw it up.

not very good with PS to paint type stuffs.. but just wanna try how to turn a photo more to a painting..!  Maybe someone else can try that =D  However, not sure it looks so bright, cuz it doesn't look that way at all with my PS...!  Let me check it out sin!

true, it is not very distracting since it curved with the slope and the little river. The lower left will be empty without it, however, I still think it is a bit too bright.

i think there is no should or should not.
you are the photographer, there must be some reasons for you to include the wooden fence.
for me, i like it. it can show more information about the surroundings and make the photo more interesting. i don't find it is distracting, since the proportion is not to big. it does balance out the weight of the house and actually leads your eyes to focus more on the house. without it, it would be a boring picture
