woah! a Renault 4!!! Cool! Haven't seen one of them for nearly 30 years! Great photo btw!

Ok, I think that you have the same fault as me - not enough sky in the Renault 4 one IMO

The Train one is brilliant. A really great photo and really interesting subject and angle. Could almost expect Hercule Poirot to walk out of the shadows at any second.

The first one really makes me think of a desk tidy every time I look at it. It's actually a darned good photo IMO - but that building does look like a desk tidy. :)

All three of these photso are really very good indeed IMO - thank you for sharing :)

Thought it best to show you how I would crop, treat etc. Hope you don't mind. See below:

I agree with the cropping of picture 3, gets rid of that man hole!
Not so sure about the station though makes the picture a little too elongated.
The villa also benefits from loosing some of the foreground.
All that said they are three good photos.

donss,
I've been thinking how to answer this for a couple of days, but Deemac has pretty well done it for me!

I particularly like the B&W street shot, excellent.
