Much prefer the one without the machinery in the foreground. Maybe this one would work better if there was some space between the tractors and the elevator. Not sure exactly but it doesn't do much for me as is.
I like this shot. But the equipment does take away from the elevator. This shot would look cool as a wide angle, with the elevator as the main foreground subject, and the equipment off to the side kind of out of focus, but still noticeably there.
