#1: Doesn't work for me. Will the boat bump against the pillar?
#2: Could be good, but need space on the left side.
#3: For me the most interesting shot. Looks a bit like a riddle, a hidden message I don't understand.
I keep myself asking whats the relation between the couple, the boat and the tree and the mountain.
#4: I am biased here -  I used to sail a lot of Laser and love that boat - so I like it.

Overall - I would reduce the vignetting.
If you need a frame in the image - a border to the outside,
it should be the composition, which keeps the image together.

I have always been a sucker for the "lone tree" shot, so I am immediately drawn to number three. I am not sure about that triangle of land on the left though, nevertheless, it is a picture that I think is good.

In the first set, the "lone tree" one speaks to me the most strongly, and in the newer set, the first one.

The lone tree shot is just amazing. I like all of the shots, but that one just stands out.

What kind of processing have done? I like how the mountains in the background fade away.
