Assuming you mean to take log(max(...))):

With this definition you don't get a quantity that's invariant under 
scaling: you want to have that

q(a,b,c)=q(t*a,t*b,t*c)

If a,b,c,t are integers you can accomplish this by dividing by doing 
something like:

log ( max(norm(a),norm(b),norm(c))/norm(ideal(a,b,c)) )

[in case you're not familiar with ideals in rings of integers: think of it  
as an analogue to gcd(a,b,c)]
