Ralph! Cool sequence on the operations. There is one photo that really caught my eye compared to the others. Crisp and clean and great composition. I hope you don't mind me pointing out the things that make me like the photo.

1. The metal siding looks really good - great color and shading.
2. The weathering at the top of the smokestacks and the shadow on the back is very realistic.
3. The background hills blend in very nicely with the scene.
4. The contrast between the front of the building and the shady side draws my attention. The brighter edges of the side columns against the shadowy side are good too.
5. The shadows and contrasts between the front of the support structure and the sides is very believable. Did you drybrush the edges of the structure with white? Also, the angled shadow cast by the support member is excellent.
6. Very nice texture under the building.
7. The open windows are a great detail.
Overall, the contrast between the shadows and lighted parts of the scene draws me in. Great job! Thanks for sharing the photos.
