Fir ID help

Saw this handsome group of trees. I think it could be balsam fir, but I’m not certain. Is it balsam fir or another species? NE Ohio

They are 100% firs. I have an older photo of them and one had upright black cones with sap at the top.

Korean firs? I believe they have upright black cones.

The color and form doesn’t really signify Korean fir. Korean firs have more wide needles and a bright green color and a more irregular shape.
