I took these tonight on the way home from work. One will make it to the challenge but I am not sure which one yet. Suggestions? Magick Michael

OK ... don't yell at me for this, but my favorite would be the middle one, but cropped like so ....

Could be worse, could be raining.

Number 1!!

It's a toss up between number one and number three! Funny thing is, number three is composed almost exactly how rickymaveety proposed number two be cropped! :) But I really like number one, I would have to say that is my favorite of all of them! :)

Yeah, I know. I loved the colors of number 2 best -- I think it's the most delicate of the three and has the orange glow at the horizon along with the pink tones in the clouds -- but I liked the composition of 3 best, with the single tree, and I think the portrait image gives more emphasis to the sky.

Could be worse, could be raining.

To me, Nr.1 has (in my eyes) the most pleasing colours and the horizontical format is more of my liking for shots such as this. If it comes to compo, i'd zoom in a little on Nr. 3 or (better?) try to get closer to have that tree even bigger without loosing to much sky? But as that's not an option any more, i'd vote on Nr. 1. :-)

i've come to this late and i've seen the one you've selected, a good choice. i like the cropped one though.

Pictures appear to me, I shoot them.   Elliot Erwitt
