Title: Bin there, done that

Grain bins of different generations.
This year the farmers are using white plastic bags, 5 x 30 m. Still pondering the landscape photography opportunities afforded by those.

I am a real sucker for agricultural landscapes, and so these drew my eye. I like the two having a cosy chat in #1 - a nice intimate shot, and the clear light and leading lines in #3 are very appealing. Although the sky in #2 is dramatic, I don't find it as compelling: I think it needs a bit more "pop".

Thanks for your feedback, Lois. I have explored the saturation, sharpness, clarity, etc. of #2 a bit and feel that it is already borderline overcooked.
I've been back to get more horizon in #1, but still prefer this version for the intimacy you point out.
