edit; the colour version of the first shot on your facebook page looks much better IMO, but still needs a bit more of a focal point

All shots have a dramatic feel to them and hope that the armchair hadn't floated out from the inside of someone's house.
Glad the weather resistance stood up to the weather!

I have also discovered a quick way to switch back and forth between histogram and no histogram without having to scroll through all the screen display types.
1) Bring up an image and, scroll thru the display options (INFO button) till the histogram shows up.
Now here is the short cut.
2) Simply press the OK button. The histogram will disappear but, the image will stay full-size. Then...
3) ...if you want to bring the histogram back up, simply press the INFO button again.
Just using those two buttons alternately allows you to switch back and forth between histogram and no histogram without having to scroll through all the screen display types.

I know these sort of tripods aren't for everyone but, once you get the hang of them, I think they're brilliant to use and a fantastic bargain when you can pick them up off eBay for as little as £20.
