I like the composition of # 1. imo though it could use a little more tweaking to darken some of the grays.

Excellent series. Wonderful concept. Nature reclaims all...eventually.

Thanks for the comments These are some of the first pics I've liked taken with my Tamron 17-55mm.

heres a go at it keep in mind I prefer dark B&W so it was hard for me not to get carried away .

I like your edit- mighty spooky. Would love to hear how you did it, too.

Not much used a gradient layer to darken the sky a bit ,added some contrast and tweaked the blacks and whites in selective color layer.Then I ran a high pass filter and fine tuned the brightness and contrast again..
I did screw the lower section of the sky had a nice uniform coverage but wasn't paying attention in the brightness adjustment but it still gives a general idea what can be done and i still use PS 7.0.
I have DxO optics pro v4 but that would be cheating
