Hi DP'ers

I need some advice on some shots i'm puting together for a local property development company for their bill board advertising. I've got about 50 shots which i've managed to narrow down to about five diferent "types".

The brief is "Lake" Any feedback for a direction would be great!!
lake 1
lake 2
lake 3
lake 4
lake 5

My opinion is a property development is trying to sell a lifestyle so the images should try and portray that. Of the 5 you are asking about I don't think any of them give any message about lifestyle.

I agree with cpanaioti...they seem more like fine art than anything that's going to sell a product to anyone.

I really like lake 1, 4 and 5 very much, they show a special calmness and exclusiveness, but I am not sure if any of them will be the right choice for a billboard for that company. I am in advertising for 'bout 15 years now and have worked for Real Estate Investment Trusts for a while; I'd choose those photos as nice backgrounds for a leaflet maybe, but for a billboard there's not enough to be seen of the lake itself and it's environment; potential customers need an image, where they can place (in their imagination) their new home (or office building)... Why not show us some more photos?

I can't imagine any of these on a billboard promoting a property development firm, frankly. Of the 5, I do MUCH prefer the last (the stone riprap and water shot) photographically.
