Great stuff. I too have to say my favorite is the first image. To me the first image has a more interesting sky with the cloud patterns and blue sky. The gate and footprints draw the viewer (at least me) into the scene as if I were there. Lastly, as I was writing this I discovered that part of my draw to the first image is the low, near ground perspective which makes the sky bigger and foreground closer. I am debating about the gate. It works in this shot but may have worked just as well without. That said, they all are great images. Keep up the cold work!
