I would agree. The first one though really gets my full attention. Wonderful images.

All 3 are very good. The first shot to me is outstanding. It is warm and has a very peaceful feeling. It would make a outstanding print.

Wonderful set. It's really hard to choose a favorite but my vote goes to the first one (soft & warm light) then the third one (fantastic sky, plays well with the shape of the farm) and then the second one (great light too).
Well done.

Scott - some nice aspects to 1 and 3, don't think 2 is such a great such comparatively. That said, the faces of the buildings in 1 & 3 facing away from the sun I think would normally be much darker? If you pulled up shadows on those faces it looks just a little unnatural. Number 3 has such a "distintive" shape it might be worth looking at it somewhere between where it is now and a silhouette. /B

A fine set, Scott. I am especially partial to 1 and 3.

I prefer the 3rd, the sky makes that photo.

Thanks for the comments. Glad you liked them.

I feel the buildings in #1 are a little bright, but my memory of #3 is that the details are even brighter than they appear here. I guess it's the origin of the phrase "processed to taste".

Agree that all are nice, but 1 takes the prize.

It is the even, warm lighting which makes it the winner.
