    #4 is especially nice. Love the light and the tree! I'd love to see more compositions of the tree, especially with more space around it.

    #1 is magical as a monochrome. Consider converting it.

    Numbers 1 and 5 are really nice. Great composition in 1. 5 could be much improved by removing the blue haze a bit and emphasizing the green. Nice bit of clouds really add to the shot. A nice spot for a shot in at a more favorable time of day lighting wise. That's always a frustration of shooting "along the way" when traveling. We're there when we're there which rarely optimizes photo ops.

    Very nice series IMO cropping #2 a little bit from bottom would improve the composition .

    I love all of them, Tony...but my favourite is #3....

    The cow at the right is the ringleader, the spokesman for lack of better term.
    The front cow is the cowsious one..the two behind her are watching you closely and the one next to the right cow is ready to charge....

    Seriously...I like #1 best.

    Nice series Tony and thanks for sharing. It's No 4 for me, the balance of interest in all areas appeals but it may be worth considering cropping the road out.

    I like #1 and #4, Tony. The first for the imposing presence of the mount, and the fourth for the light. Autumn is here and the light is becoming interesting again.

    Re: En route to Glen Innes and beyond

    Thanks everybody for the comments. I have taken them to heart. Here is a version of #1 in black and white and also of #4 with more space beside the tree and the road cropped out as suggested. I think I might have overdone the clouds in #1 though. The image of the tree is actually a different photograph but similar.

    Izzie, I couldn't resist putting in the picture of the cattle. Even though they were not standing in front of a nice scene, they looked very cute. They came running up towards me when I stopped.
