Really nice....I would remove the crane(?) though as it kind of ruins the feel.

The crane doesn't bother me. It is a well balanced composition and beautiful scene. There is a lot more detail in the white building than this version shows. If you have photoshop, use your shadow highlight control, wind the shadow sliders back to 0 and just work on the highlight sliders. If not and you have a RAW version, just pull the exposure back a bit.

I think the crane makes an interesting juxtaposition with the rest of the things in the frame, including the guy commuting via horseback...

I think the exposure problem is more an issue than the crane but I think the man and donkey need to be exposed better not just the white buildings.

Compositionally, what is the subject? You have a wide DOF but the foreground subject is underexposed while the background subject needs, as above, more detail. Either throw out focus in the foreground or do the opposite and light the man/donkey to darken the scene (for a more dramatic feel). And I agree on the crane. Either remove it or...find a better way re: juxtaposition of old/new. Right now, it is a distracting element.

Nice but I think there is too many things going on with the picture. It would be better if it was just the horse/man subject + mountains background. Crane, buildings, etc. too much of distraction.
