Just something different than the normal tourist shots.

Any critiques welcomed.

I like the composition of the first one. It looks a little unlevel to me though - slanting to the left. Nothing a quick crop wouldn't fix. Also, did you shoot in RAW as I reckon you could pop the colour out a bit more and adjust the WB to counteract the cloudyness. Good shots!

I like #1 and #3, but #2 doesn't get my attention.

#1 could use a lot more of the surroundings to give it some context. Remember, you shouldn't depend on you caption to tell the viewer what he is looking at.

#2 is a good, idea, stand up a tiny bit more and level with the center of the bike racks, zoom in and crop the left and right, or square it in PS later, good concept :)
