    Hi John

    I have looked at all three of your images in this series and i think I like this one most. Not by much, but If I were to pick one it would be this.. For me the blue is a bit strong however and is not matching with the light blue in the upper sky. In Australia we have West of Sydney an area called the blue mountains, so named because of the faint blue haze which covers the area. The haze is from Eculypus trees that cover the area which emit an oil and causes the haze. I am wondering if the trees in your area do something similar..? Anyway, I would consider cropping off the light blue section top of image to avoid the contradiction..

    Looking at all three this would be my pick. I agree with Don on the layers and think a pano crop losing the blue sky and some of the darker bottom area would enhance the central subject of those lovely layered hills.

    The blue tone is much more effective with the layers of the mountains in this image. Nicely done!
