I find that your first two shots would look better if they were shot either faster with flash to freeze the movement or slower so that the water looks glassy. When I shoot water I tend to shoot the same thing with a number of different shutter speeds and decide which effect works best.

The last shot would look nicer in a long exposure shot about an hour earlier so that you have warm side lighting.

Just my opinion.

Thanks! I appreciate your feedback. I'm just learning and using a P&S camera for the time being until I build up some skills. Thanks again,

Depending on the camera, you can still play with shutter speed. Most good P&S have a shutter speed priority mode that allows you to experiment without having to pull out a light meter.

Thanks again. I took these photos right after I got the camera. At the time I had not had a chance to really play with the different features. I'm going to spend a bit of time playing around with it to see what I can come up with. Take care,

Try to keep the horizon out of the middle. They're all pretty dull and boring.
And what they said ^^^^
