Hello! I'm a newbie to photo-processing. Recently I started to use a RAW-editor, and because I spent a lot of time doing this, I think my understanding of a good photo might be spoiled.
What do you think about these photos? Thanks in advance for your opinion!

They have good potential, for me especially #4. However, as I don't shoot in raw I'm not really the one to say how you've done on processing. They look OK. What I can say is that you need to think about the division of your scenes a little more. Start by placing the "horizon" one third or so from the top or bottom of the frame and not slap bang in the middle.

Welcome!

Thank you for a good answer, Fred. Glad to hear you consider my photos having good potential.
Yeah, since I showed these photos to other people I've been told a lot that I should have used the rule of thirds. Now I see it's really important.

If these were taken on the same day, why aren't the colors the same, or at least more similar?

It was getting dark plus when I took the last photos there appeared a little smog.
Here's the order I took the photos: 1-3-4-2
