Nice little series. My favourite by far is Photo 3 of this series. I really like how the steps lead the eyes to the house and how everything is framed by the trees in all their golden autumn glory. Give the photo some depth, and your DOF goes very well with that, too! Do you remember (or could you look it up) what aperture you went for and for how long you had to expose to get it right (looks like your surroundings were not precisely brightly lit!).
