#2 would be great if you could take out your xiao ding dang pouch and magick the lorry and blue dustbin away.. =D

I like #4 a lot though.

Wa, your out of cam not like mine. Mine all crimson red. =/

I like the brownish tone too and am beginning to have my finished products in that tone.

I find your pics a little under exposed shooting in Aperture Priority at f/5 and f/6.3. Take a look at the histograms of your shots, there're no highlights, mostly in the mid-tones and shadows. As you shot with 0ev compensation, you may like to try shooting with +0.3ev or +0.7ev, this will also bring up your exposure a little bit more.

I would do a auto level in PS to bring up the overall brightness of the scene. Then reduce some bluish tint in the foliage to have them a little more white.
But then that's just my choice.

You will still be able to maintain the brownish sky with auto levels.

haha i kinda liked the blue dustbin in #2. If u noticed we have the old, the new, nature, man-made, the traditional and the modern elements all in one photo! Tat's what I love about old estates. Fusion =P Thanks for your kind comments!

@teerex

I get what you mean. U are very right about the histogram!! I shot in ev bracketing mode and sadly this was the only one which was fine haha. the rest were all destroyed by handshake. I will do a run on autolevel and see the difference =) Thanks for your pointers!
will continue to improve
