Mickey,

I really like #4 alot. The others are a bit too centered for my taste. They seem to dissect the page right in half. A little more foreground or sky to bring the horizontal meeting of the bank and the water would make them even more interesting.

My 2 cents worth,

Ray

Hi Mickey,
Reflections are a lot of fun.
My personal taste would be to crop the tree reflection out of number 4 . No 5 has a simplicity that draws me back to it too.

well done.

Cheers.

Ditto! Maybe just a little tighter crop?

HEY MICKEY, I find the composition of these to my liking, however where i can see the sky I feel they are blown out, and the greens seem to mix up with each other creating a smudgy effect.

Hey Mickey, I like the images, it's a shame about the blown out sky.
#1 can be greatly improved if you crop from the top to just above the top of the tree that is to the left of the central tree.
#2 Try turning it upside down.
#3 I think it would be hard to do something with that shot because of the sky.
#4 is nice but I think it's a shame that the actual tree gets lost in the background.
#5 is a very nice image.
