I like this one better than your rural entry just for the star trails alone. Well done!

This is such a perfect capture of summer fun. Congrats on top 5 and your new personal best score! I'm with you about having your kids on your top row. One of my daughters was there for several months, but got bumped. I just have to keep trying. :)

Very nice! Centering her works - the Dad balances nicely against the person on the diving board. If you know them, offer them a print. :)

I like the sharp ball a lot. I also like the story and everything from the dog to the left. I'd just bring in the right edge to just right of the dog. That'll lend some balance. The problem, often, with centered compositions is that they invite comparisons across that central line. Here, you have the boy balanced against not much. With the right edge moved over, you have the dog on the right balancing the boy on the left. It also keeps attention where you want it, as opposed to wandering over to the right in this composition.
