Day at the farm

Took our son (and cameras) to a farm/petting zoo kinda operation today. Thought these came out pretty nicely:

As always, comments and constructive criticism are appreciated.

Really like the last one. What a great field of color, and leading skies.
what a nice memory-maker day you had with your son. (That's what my family calls a great day- memory maker)

The first one is wonderful (probably need to cut a bit from below)

Thanks guys. Appreciate the comments and help. Actually Santoshrane, that isn't HDR. It was done with a polarizing filter and that's pretty much it. I did a RAW+Large(fine) JPEG (not intentionally, but it was a good thing this time), and that's how the colors turned out in the JPEG, but Lightroom took out all the vibrance from the RAW file. I opened the JPEG in "Preview" and forced Lightroom to make the same thing. It's preeeeetty close to exact. Sashbar, I agree on the crop. There's a wee bit much droppings for my taste on the ground too, so that would take care of some of it.
