    The first one is my favorite and a definite keeper, it is very interesting and I like the repitition of the wooden slates in a circle. The second one is decent, though I think the right side of the picture is a bit distracting, maybe if you just had the pole on the right and the rest of the water and such on the left it would work a bit better. The third one seems to be focusing on the tree, but imo the other elements in the picture are a little too distracting. In all you have some nice pics here.

    I agree with Darkrainfall comments about the last shot. My favorite here is the second shot. I like the water and the clouds above look very cool. Also like how you have the pole in the frame, but just wish there was water on the other side of the pole as well instead of the black shadowy mass. The first is nicely done but not fav.
    please do not edit and repost my photos

    3 good pics - but the second does less for me than the 3rd...I quite like the contrast between the tree (shaded area) and the rest of the pic- although the rest of the pic isn't particularly interesting compared to the tree .But the concept is great. The first is fun and would be nice framed and put up on a wall.

    All three are good, but I would say the first and third stand out. However, the third is not really an abstract in my mind, because we can see enough of what's going on in the scene to know exactly what it is, etc. The first is very abstract and a very good one, visually speaking.

    Exposure-wise they're all very good. Colorful, sharp and contrasty for the most part.

    Composition-wise I think you have a good aesthetic sense and convey interesting parts of this place that people might otherwise miss. For some reason I am really drawn to the third shot. I almost expect a Venician taxi to come rowing down the canal.

    Keep them coming....
