    Wow. Nice enormous prairie sky. Works great in black and white. Mike

    I think I definitely prefer the colour versions you've shown us ... but this does look good in the sky and silhouette.

    Thanks gents...I quite like the BW version as I was going for the dark shadows of the 5 graineries in contrast with the wispy sky.

    I also like the color version much better. I think the image looses impact in b&w,

    Thanks for the input and the kind comments.
    I quite prefer the BW one as I think it is different than the typical sunset shot.
    I was going after the dark angular silhouettes of the buildings contrasting with the wispy texture of the clouds vs the texture of the crops moreso than the colour of sky in this version. .
