She's interesting, but the water pipes at the right really make it -- they look like some weird hand with an off-the-wall manicure.

Beautiful. I love the curve of the hillside.

California is full of beautiful hills, but one of my favorites is up by Los Alamos where Cat Canyon Road crosses 101 -- the right side of Can Canyon Road heading East.

I do sort of wish the sailors were in better focus, but this is an wonderful urban composition, and the processing and colors give it a delightfully retro look.

Don't pay attention to the Philistine comments.

I'm with Sarah -- the shot is more interesting with a person in it.

Beautiful reflections and you really caught the "gray day" light.

I really like your DOF. I've never noticed the beautiful "wrapping" texture in the bud of a California poppy. My only suggestion would be to get the whole bud in the shot -- as I recall, they come to a neat point which would add some more visual interest (IMNSHO). Maybe put the bud on the diagonal? Lovely colors and forms in the background.
