#2 is the pick by far for me.
#1 and #3 I am struggling a bit with the real subject of the image.
#4 I think that the idea is good but for me not really accomplished.

Excellent effort though with a lot to build on - hopefully you have similar conditions to shoot again.

I particularly like the playful clouds in #1. Too bad about the towers.
#3 is unusual but it works for me. Good seeing.

The second image is my favorite! It's a wonderful and tranquil winter scene!

The light wasn't that great for most shots except the first when it was a little weird but then again, I think many expect a flatter light for the winter scenes.
For the first the towers should be easy to clone but didn't feel the need to.
Third one has pretty heavy handed processing to make it look more as I saw it then as it really was.
On the fourth I realize that although I liked the subject I just couldn't pull it through.


Here are a couple more recent from a closer park  ;)
