 i remember us ridin in my brother's car
her body tan and wet down at the resevoir
and late at night i'd lie awake
and pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take
now them memories come back to haunt me
they haunt me like a curse
is a dream a lie if it don't come true
or is it something worse...

Beautiful night shot. Clarity and sharpness are right on. Love the line of the trees leading up to the sky. Nice work.

Oblique horizon bothers me a bit - I guess not much you can do about it in minimal editing. Very nice colors in the background.

Simple and lovely. I especially love that I can pick Orion out of the sky. Adds a sense of familiarity to this scene. 7.

Nice arbor silhouette with starry accents of Constellation, Orion, and Planet, Venus, I think! :)

Very beautiful, but perhaps the foreground is a little too dark.
