All three are good captures. I see No 1 in Sepia to add a little time?

I love them all, but I think number two would be my favourite if you use distort in photoshop to make the jetty perfectly central.
Kind regards

I like them all, but number two is my favourite. I can live with the jetty being slightly off centre, but I'd crop a bit of the sky away, to move the mountains up the frame a bit ( IMHO )
Getting there! Thanks to you guys

Yes the non central jetty winds me up a bit but I am an engineer by training! I'll have a go at those suggestions and re - post to see what people think.
Keep the comments coming!

What do people think of these adjustments?

I think both are more pleasing than the originals.

I really like the changes to your boat in the mist shot, the mountains have more presence. However I preferred the first version of the Cannon on wood image, the graduated sky compliments with the reflection in the water.

I think of it this way

Love the pier shot, but I also prefer the original crop (even though I didn't like the off-center-ness of it). It's a shame to crop out the darker blue sky.

I prefer the original version of image 2, but I still feel it needs to be made central. I am happy to have a go for you with your permission?

Andy,
I like the 2nd crop of the pier and cannon, not for the centred look as much, but because the streaks of cloud / contrails in the sky drew my eye away from the vanishing point created by the pier. Mind you, it could be removed fairly easily with clone / heal etc in any of the popular apps (with RAW or jpgs). That way, the 'big' sky could be reintroduced if you wished.

They are really nice shots, but being critical, number 1 needs levelling and number 2 needs distortion correction (the barrel distortion shows up badly on the planks in the bottom of the shot). Number 3 is also not level.
Like Andy (above) I prefer the original number 2 "big sky". Just crop the right edge and distortion correct, never mind the format ratio change.
