One of the genuine strengths of this forum is the chance to see pictures taken at places like this. One looks a bit wonky but I like the composition of two and three.
Best wishes,
Andrew

Another vote for No. 3 - this one could have been even better if the ducks and their watcher could have been just a little closer.

Beautiful sights! In my 20s I spent a wonderful 4 months backpacking through Indonesia from Banda Aceh to West Timor and had the time of my life. That looks a lot like Bali or east Java?

Thousands of pictures, but not digital unfortunately (my trip was in 1998!). Also I was a pretty crappy photographer back then, so the only good shots were mostly by accident A few years ago I scanned a few dozen on a really low budget scanner, here is one of a Mentawai tribesman in Siberut. His name is Pilipus:

Perhaps the haze is flare related? Do you use a hood for these shots?

Nr 1. "wonky" may mean that it leans to right. I would even say, it is almost falling.
I have never been to such places and it looks so great - it makes me to wish visiting that part of world.
