    Default Church Steeple Triptych

    I created a triptych because I can't decide which of these versions, if any, I like. I thought I'd see what this forum thinks. (I see that the photos are not properly lined up.)

    Hi Anita. My eye keeps going to the middle image. Probably because of the background. I also like the blue sky with clouds as a backdrop for the steeple and angled roof.

    I like all three, together, Anita. However, if I were to pick one, it'd be the first with the third a not-too-distant second. The colors in the second work well together, but I'm not sure about the orange in the sky. I like the first better than the third because the sky is there and has some interest but isn't distracting. The lines are quite nice in the base image, and I like the composition.

    I think it depends on why you created this. If for a more traditional/modern version, I like the one on the right. The church has a more modern application to the traditional style steeple and the more realistic sky works with this. The one on the left, the sky is a big blah to me. If you are looking for a more stylistic image, then the center one because it has more stylistic lines and colors.

    Nice comp, Anita. Good triangular lines......I like Number 1, if I had to choose, and the set works well together.

    Anita, I like #1 the best also because the tones of the roof and steeple are reflected in the sky. And I like #3 because it reminds me of a Norman Rockwell

    Thank you all. I'm not particularly happy with any of the images. My husband pointed out that the steeple doesn't go with the other roofs. I think he has a point.
