Some very nice shots. Looking at your Fields of Gold, the first thing that hit me was a feeling of imbalance. I just get a sense that your horizon is not level. The barn roof and the silo just have a slight lean to the right.

Bud, don't you imagine that the apparent curvature is due to an extreme wide angle lens on the shot? My EXIF info showed something like a lens setting of 4.3mm

I found that rotating it 1.5 degrees counterclockwise made it seem straighter to me.

That shot was taken from the bottom of a long upward slope. There really weren't any level lines among those hills in that area. When I viewed it, I thought the leaning side of the silo was convergence, since I was pointing the camera upward. And, Yes, the Canon SX510HS was at it's most extreme wide angle which is 4.3mm.
That year, all the fallow fields in that area of the county had been planted with a cover crop of the plant shown. There must have been hundreds of acres of farm land that was abloom with that brilliant yellow flowering. Quite a site to be sure!
Thank you for viewing and your suggestions and comments, all.

Great set Stan...just loved the sunset shots
Thank you, Jan! The Caribbean locales certainly provide some beautiful sunset photo opportunities.
Thank you John! These are just random picks from my photo files of my better efforts. I should probably try to have a common theme when posting a group of images. Maybe next time . . .
