I really like the third one - a very simple yet different composition.

That was a joke.
Really nice stuff, I like the sky in #4.

I like the Church of Good Shepherd shot, but wish that there was less distortion on the church. I would try to correct that if I were you.

Third shot is great.

And I love the clouds in the Milford shot.
