These are all excellent - for me number 2 stands out with the sun off to the right. Could possibly crop a tad on the foreground though

Hi Phil

Yes I saw yours on your pf. This angle doesn't show the damage as well; it would perhaps look a little thinner looking through the structure

Thank you Gary and John - and well spotted Gary!
Here it is re-aligned;

And just seen the error - the filter was a 10stop - not a 1-stop!

Ok - here we go with the first one. As I live in Brighton, I couldn't go without one of an iconic landmark - the West Pier! This was taken at sunrise last December. The pier suffered some severe beating from the storms soon after this was taken.

A 1-stop Nisi ND filter was used giving a 96sec exposure. A tone curve lift and touch of clarity and orange sat treatment in LR

Kris (womble) kindly asked me to take over from him with this thread. I will put something up later today when I get the chance! Looking forward to your comments and suggestions!

Tend to agree - this last is not the best of the set; however is still intriguing and I know that had I seen that, I would have taken a picture!!

Another great shot Kris. The square format works well with this and the contrast is good. As with the comments of others, the ripples, whether wanted or not, add extra interest.

Very black and white!

I like the fact that the snow is almost washed out, excepting a small amount of detail around the animal's feet. You have also managed to keep detail in the texture of the coat as well.

Both versions work for me. Something about the 'coldness' of the first image, but this second one perhaps evokes the sentiment on the grave better.

And a great 2nd shot Kris.
The composition/ cropping etc is spot on IMO. And the ' alternative digital process' chosen for this works well.
