Different setting let me know what you think so I can learn from all of you
The Red Mill
The historic Red Mill is known across the country as a photogenic symbol of early America's rural industry. The familiar red building can be found everywhere, including official New Jersey tourism posters, roadmaps and postcards. It is the most photographed spot in New Jersey and one of the top ten most photographed buildings in the U.S.
The ca. 1810 Red Mill was originally built as a woolen mill. Over the next 100 years, the Mill was used at different times to process grains, plaster, talc and graphite. The Mill was also used to produce peach baskets, as well as to generate electricity and pump water for the town.
Much more pleasing than yesterday's image. The exposure, colors and composition are excellent.

This one is beautiful! I really like this. Just a touch of dodging around the water wheel would lighten this area and bring out more of the details in the shadows.

@Russ: Thank you for your comments and ideas
I prefer this one too, the colors are more flashies, the contrasts are more defined. vu@granby - Gilles Martineau
