Illinois Countryside early fall

My wife and I just moved back to the Chicagoland area after living in ATL for 8 years. It's amazing how different the landscapes are around this beautiful country. Let me know what you think.

lovely..superb exposures and compositions ..i have no critique to offer

cheers

#3 is the best of the series, quite nice.

Superb! They look so simple, yet absolutey amazing.

Great series, first and last stand out for me.

Number 6 takes the ribbon, IMO. All nice shots, though.

Thank you for all the kind words.

Nice images and yes the landscape of America is indeed endless. I printed #3 with separate contrast masks for the barn sides, roof, and water tower. I think it adds a little more punch and balance to the image. Season to taste. I also cloned out the distractions on the horizon to the right side. In terms of composition I think it's a bit awkward having the barn point out of the frame at the far left in a panoramic however that may be my unique take on the scene. A little bit of sharpening popcorn in the field (white bits) but hey, thanks for bringing us the Midwest! I really like panoramic formats.
