      Number one for me too, lovely colours and the reflection works well for me.

          Really like the first one with the reflection in the water. But now you've cropped it, it's become a great shot!


          print it, frame it, nail it to the wall and tell everyone that comes in "I did that!" and be proud.

              Doglet, everyone else has (quite rightly) focused on no 1, so for a bit of balance I thought I'd let you have my thoughts on the other two. Just my opinion, of course, and all meant to be constructive.
              I think that no 2 has too many areas with not enough going on - i.e. a large portion of the sky and the silhouetted rocks. I suppose it isn't quite clear what the focus of the shot is - the bridge (in which case it is a bit distant) or the surroundings (which you can't really see). Finally, the bridge seems just a bit too much off-level.
              I can see exactly what you were trying with no 3, i.e. to frame the industrial bridge with the natural trees/plants. I think it could have worked, if the leaves weren't encroaching on the bridge. Perhaps taking one step further forward and right would have done it...
              OK, so now to the cropped no 1. Wow, wow, wow. I dream of getting an image as good as this. Great lighting, wonderful warm colours, stunning reflection, cracking sky. Bloomin' well done.

                Thanks for your comments No2 is a bit of level, the horizon not quite distinct so not sure wether to follow the river or the hills. Was trying for the sunset with the bridge silhouetted, not quite achieved, must try harder.
                No3 the horizon once again slightly of. Take your point about the trees,could/would have been better one step forward or to the right.
                Makes mental note for the future.
