    I like #1 and #4 best, #1 best of the two. It might? have been better if the railing in #1 wasn't there hard to say for me without trying. I think you did a real nice job with positioning the bridge and the city behind it.

    #4 it's an interesting cabin..and I like the mostly untouched snow...i think some of the extra elements around it though detract away from it.

    The first and last ones are my favorites. The bridge shot is very straightforward and it works very well imo. The bottom shot, it has a lot of nice elements in there. The sun is a bit bright however.

    The bluish shadows make it moody and warm.

    I was out at a bad time for these shots. I was so anxious to try out my new camera, that I didn't keep in mind that 1:30pm is a bad time to shoot.

    #4- I like the way the log cabin contrasts with the multistory building just peeking through the left side of the pic. What am I looking at in pic 3? It intrigues me.

    Pic#3 is of a tree stump that was rotting. The first shot i took of it was low and dead on. I figured I would take a more dynamic shot from the top to the bottom. I think it came out quite well.
