Amazing capture! The colors and mood are perfect for the subject.

Sutprised this isn't in your 'dreams' collection. Beautiful colors, looks like an oil painting. Even the ducks add to this shot. Awsome!

Very surreal with the dodging of the greens. Maybe tone down the blue just a bit. Beautiful shot and location, though. Wish I were there!

I really like this shot. The warm colors reflecting off the clock and building, the sky to the left, everything.

1800's Brick Road

Comment:
Not too many old brick roads around anymore. I like the angles of the bricks, and perspective, color/saturation, etc... A little more DOF, or maybe slightly moved up to about the lower 1/3rd mark would be nice IMO (it seems that's where my eye wants to hit, and it's slightly OOF at that point). Also, since this is a road, it would be interesting to see what another composition that clearly shows it is a road would look like. Maybe some curb or something.

Nice composition, and interesting colors in the flower. I do wish the DOF was much deeper to include the front petals through at least the center of the flower, with only the farthest petals falling off the focal plane.

It looks like he is actually watching you take his picture....posing if you will. Nice detail on the face and texture of the leaf. Exposure looks perfect. Personal preference, would like a little more DOF.

I like it. The trees and foliage framing the waterfall really give you a sense of discovering a hidden pool. I may play with a little dodging/saturation to really open up the center area, but not so much to spoil the natural beauty.

The colors of the flowers is nice, but I just don't care for the background / composition of this one. Maybe a different perspective or crop and a shallow depth of field would help.

The Road

Nice perspective. It feels like you really are looking down-hill. As others have mentioned, clone out the sign on the left, and maybe work on the very dark area on the top left. Something else that I think would add to the shot is maybe a bicycle just coming around the corner...but maybe not, just a thought.
