One of your best sets - particularly for amusement value. I love Nos. 2 & 9 at the new Becketts Ford and I think that the driver in No. 3 had a tad too much under-steer dialed in!

#3 - lovely, gentle shot. The square format works for me, but like David I too can see some sort of artifact around the posts.

I really love monochrome and that's a fine example of how it can add to the atmosphere - a cracking start.

That's a cracking conclusion - I agree with everything that Simon and Gary have said. Lot's of interest in the foreground and the green bush really adds to the whole. Finally - just to top it off, you've got a lovely set of clouds.

Personally, I would change the tonal balance somewhat ... There is a bright foreground zone which overpowers the centrally placed subject area, so I would tend to reduce brightness on the foreground stones and slightly boost midtones and contrast on the boat and people.

I really like the silhouette, and as per usual your captions are spot-on.

Now to nit-pick - the top of the reflection of the girls head just cuts the edge of the frame, does it clear it in the original? It is not unknown, down our way, for judges to criticise (at great length!) when this happens with a reflection, or a shadow, or anything else for that matter! (I said it was a nit-pick).
