Great shots.
Number 1 has some fantastic colours in and is well composed and I like the fact you have got low so that the pier is above the line of the background mountains/hills.
Number 2, I love the top 2/3rds of this image but the shore at the bottom distracts me a little. Have you tried a crop without the shore line?
Number 3, just great. I love it.

Very nice captures here. Love the warm sunset light and the treatment of the trees as shapes. The pastel color reflections off the water are well exposed. Good job!

All typically brilliant, but the last one is particularly breathtaking.

Thanks for the comments everyone.
@Stevel. I would have prefered just the tree, reflection and water in this shot but not enough rainfall the day before, maybe next time. I'd also prefer low fast moving clouds too, but can't have everything. I've not tried to crop the shore line as I prfer the way it is. I might see how a square crop looks though

Grant, just to add mine to the above plaudits from others, you do set a really high standard in your work. Excellent.
