As far as competition goes, I think you have a bit too much negative space in the foreground with the grass. There's not much going on with it and there's nothing interesting about it. A tighter crop to eliminate some of the foreground could help.

I agree with Corey but would crop it a bit tighter and take out most of the sky. It's blown out and doesn't add any value. You may want to go back if you can and shoot this earlier in the morning or latter in the evening when there is better light.

I agree with the two previous posters on the composition. Personally I may have placed myself a bit more to the left to close the distance between the well and the house. It's too bad the overhanging dead limbs in such close proximity to the house.
