i like the first one, because of the contrast created by that thing in front, the other 2 seem more dul compared to that

I find the hay feeder a bit distracting. Other than that I like them all. Welcome to the forum.

The hay ring is distracting to me. You did a good job removing it and opening the shadows inside the door.

^^I agree both about the contrast and the hay ring. #2 is my favorite since it's darker, but no hay ring. Nice shots.

I like number two, feel it conveys the essence of both old and weathered.
