The patterns and geometricity of nature are hard to escape. It's a world unto itself. I like this work especially.

Love-Hate Relationship

The person, like a compass in a photo of a geological site, confirms scale and size. Therefore, IMO you were right to include her (him?). I expect you were using a polarizer too? Considering the brightness, it all came out well.

It's a nice tehcnique. My question, why f11? when you had the camera on a tripod and might have had a larger depth of field with f22. Excuse my ignorance... ;-)

Storm Front: Serenity III

That was a 'hot pixel day.' I think you did well in the processing and I can understand why the image was impossible not to take at the time. The square crop does work - but viewing, as I do at home, on a laptop means that this size image requires a good scrolling. With my larger screens at my place of (self-employed) work, the total view is available without scrolling. Sometimes the scrolling factor might have an influence. It's nice to have the option of a larger image from time to time, as the rules allow in this challenge for instance, but IMO it is not always good to maximize the size. 0.02 cents at current exchange rate worth next to nothing... ;-)

Captures that stereotype of a Paris location. Nice simple graphic presentation and your friend is the pearl in the oyster.
