Trying to figure out where the roofline on this picture is

Hi everyone,

I am working on a new picture and I have some trouble figuring out where the actual roof line of the house is. On the left, you can see a faint outline. I was wondering whether it might be a "stepped" roof and the big "blob" close to the top could be a chimney. The longer I look at it, the less I can figure it out :D

What do you think?

Thanks in advance!

Hi WordSparkLLC.  Good question.  I felt that the blue channel gave the most info and here is what I came up with.

There is a chimney.  And I see the roof's shape like you have it, Phil.

Thank you Phil, Candice, Lynnya and Kiska  :hug:

First, I thought it looked like Phil's, but the angle of the outline on the left threw me for a loop and I wasn't sure if there was anything that potentially needed to be symmetrically matched on the right (even though the tree is in front of the house).

After looking at Kiska's, I thought that strange angle on the left would match a smaller "ante roof" and that part of the house protrudes from the porch, so I think, I'll go with that. Still have a looong way to go with the picture, thank you all for your help!
