Many thanks,

I love the low-angle rail shot, and the dandelion against the deep blue sky (nice color contrasts in that one). The others don't do much for me. The first one is marred by the lamp post right in the middle, and it's hard to separate the birds from the clutter of the wall. The moon shot doesn't have anything special: it's just a moon over some trees. For me, the third one would be better if it were straight (I'm not a fan of tilted cameras).

But keep that dandelion; it's a winner. Nice job!

I would suggest that you re-post your images at a smaller size.
800 pixels is the recommended maximum dimension.

I like the monochrome with all the birds, but as was pointed out, the lamp pole is too intrusive, being right in the center.

I also agree about the tilted shot. It's well done, but the tilting does not appeal to me.

I believe the guidelines recommend only 2 images per posting. On my system, I have to pan in order to see all four images.
I never did find a dandelion shot.

I also like the railroad scene, but the near foreground is distracting as it is out of focus.

According to the histogram, all of the images could be improved by properly setting the white point and the black point.
