Camera used was a Canon EOS 350D fitted with a Tamron SP AF Aspherical XR Di 28-75mm 1:28 lens
1st pic 1/125 @ F8
2nd pic 1/80 @ F5.6
3rd pic 1/125 @ F5.6
My intention was to shoot a couple of shots to try and capture a bit of atmosphere to depict the Autumn months and hopefully get a shot worthy of entry into this years calendar.
Time of day was between 1545 and 1615 sun was low in the sky and light starting to fade especially in the 2nd pic
I waited to later in the day to try and create a bit of atmosphere with the fading light to try and capture the remoteness of the setting. Could have shot the pics in full sunlight but this would have just washed out any detail and shown up the background more but I wanted the ZED to be the centre of attention.
Hi-Res pics look much better but limited to bandwidth for uploading.

I think the first is your best, close to the car, keep away from aerials and stacks in back ground. Personally I try these shots at varying times in the day, I've found early mornings are sometimes better, very low speeds on tripods etc. Clouds and skys are always a PIA, Mr Photoshop is your best ally, you can turn pigs ears into silk purses. Thanks for that.
