I'm having a hard time deciding which is the better of the two.

When I first looked, only the first one was up. With both I have had to go back and forth, and I've decided that they work best as a pair: Full dark before the roof lights are turned off, and then first light, after the artificial lights are turned off.

They say more as a pair than either alone, IMHO.

As Russ sometimes says, "Good seeing."

I agree with Eric… They work best as a set but if I had to choose only one, it would be the first.

I haven't decided whether to simplify the image in post or to photograph a different pump.

Here's what ABC looks like from the road, as seen through an iPhone.
