Stunning set Martin,

beautiful colors & lovely framing...

These are worth some photography competitions for sure.

Nit pick - - # 9 needs a check for the horizon line....

# 1, 12, 13, 14, & 15 are my top picks.

Lil

Thanks so much Lil for these very encouraging comments. I have never thought my pics were good enough for a competition but thanks for the suggestion.
I was wondering if anyone would pick up the horizontal line in # 9 when I saw it after posting, good eye!
Thanks for your picks too!
