Your frame colour, adn the sudden on-set of bokeh in the middle shot, disturb this collection for me. The colour I think removes the impact of the sunset colours in the actual photos, and the placement of the distant rock in the centre frame seems far stronger than the placemtn of the in-focus subject - my eye is constantly drawn there. The overall shaping of the outer scenes, pushing the attention to centre, and then the very strong thirds placemnt of that out-of-focus rock are what cause that I think. Given the uncomplicated nature of landscape photography - I mean the lack of complexity of reaction it provokes, such dissonant composition seems rather unuseful

Three nice pictures, but the center one with shallow DOF throws the symetry off. Your (my) eye is drawn to the out of focus rock in the middle!

border is too garish. the OOF BG in middle frame is distracting. other than that I really like the subject and handling and thougth in this.

Great colors and the focus on the center is great. (although I can't quite tell what it is. shell?) I think that having the water be more even on both sides would be more appealing, but perhaps less interesting. Border is a nice shade. 8
