Thanks, Chuck. I think that's my favorite too.  It looks pretty good
in a large size and I think might print well.  You put your finger on
one of its issues.  I think I might try cropping off the bottom to
make the overall proportion 3:2.  The bottom (fields to horizon)
recorded a stop or so darker than shown since I exposed for the sky.
I assume that's where you'd like a bit more contrast.
