I like them all especially No. 1 & No. 2 - but if push comes to shove: No. 2 wins for me!!!

Nice Set!!!

I like number 2.
The others just don't have anything that catches my attention and I hate BW for nature shots, nature has colours, not monochrome.

Thanks Enezdez. I agree that 2 is the stronger image, although I wish I could get it less muddy.

Thanks Shafty. It's always good to hear how others view my work. It helps me to understand what I like, and don't like about it. For me these aren't nature shots as there is very little that is natural about them. I think I'm going more for the surreal.

Ah ok.I'll keep that in mind and will look again when I'm sober .

Hands down #2, is the winner. I don't see the "muddy" you refer to, maybe because of the strong visual elements and leading lines. #1 and #3 lack direction, allowing the eye to wander searching for a focal point.

I agree that #2 is it, but can't get past the feeling that it has a strong lean to the right. That far shoreline is just too strong and too tilted for me, whether it is reality or not. But then again, photography really isn't anything more than a perception of reality for any shot.

#2 is very nice, but desperately needs leveling!

Thanks Smoke. I've had my suspicions about #1 and #3, and I think you are right.

Thanks Deeky, and Tirediron. Now that you mention it you are both absolutely right. I wonder how I missed such an obvious thing? I usually look specifically at the leveling too. I will be reworking this one for sure. Thank you both.

Your remix (leveled) is MUCH better! #2 wins for me now!
