A bit difficult without knowing more about the competition...what is it they are looking for?
Just a point...the church steeple in No.6 looks like it is leaning to the right. It s a nice shot otherwise. I like Nos 3 and 7 as well.

sorry should have been more specific.
its an open b&w comp - anything goes.
I will take a look at the steeple again - ive changed the position of that a hundred times. when you move the steeple the grass/ ground turns!
Number 7 gets a couple of votes then? Good stuff

3 and 7 I would think, but it will depend on the judge and the other entries.
Best regards, John

7,1 and 6 (although vertical needs straightening) for me. In that order.

I think no. 6, church steeple, is great. Sure, check straightness but I'd also try to reduce the halo-type effect behind the trees which looks a bit too 'HDR' .

Another vote for 3 & 7, but with a bit more work 6 could be there as well - I think that it has potential.

No one has mentioned 5? Ok it loses it a bit on the right, but unlike the others it tells a Story.

Thanks for all the feedback lads. How would i go about fixing the church? Apart from the angle of the church what tweaks do you suggest?

No3 by a massive country mile. But No7 is also very good too.
No6, the church spire, was that a HDR shot. Only ask is it looks to have a HDR glow around the trees. I was pulled up at my local club for entering a photo with obvious HDR treatment. The Judge said it would have been a 8/10 but marked it down to 6/10.
But its beautifully framed, like the photo a lot.

bit of skewing. I would get rid that HDR Haloing though.Thanks for all the feedback lads. How would i go about fixing the church? Apart from the angle of the church what tweaks do you suggest?

Would you all be good enough to pick a couple that you think stand out?
I appreciate all those that take the time to help
Cheers
