First off, between the first two which one is everyone's favorite.

The first night I went out I took this picture. The sky was clear so I got a good blue cast on the reflections in the water which added great color to the scene. However I find the little leaf on the top rock to take away from the pure texture of stone and water. I wish I had taken it off that night, but I didn't.

I went back out again, but the weather was cloudy this time so the colors were much more muted. I took the leaf off, so the composition became much stronger as far at theme and texture go, but I lost the great color in the reflecting areas of the scene. When I get back from my trip I'm going to try working hard in photoshop to add the color back into it but it will never reach the same level of saturation as the one taken in better light.

Really, for me, I like the original one, #1, the leaf doesn't bother me at all, in fact, it adds to it. I am of the way of, if it's real, leave it alone, it does that in nature, so why mess with nature. (I don't mean that is a rude way) I am always tempted to remove 'stuff', but I leave it alone. I once saw a shot that a guy did, and come to find out, he placed leaves all over the place to get the 'shot' he wanted. That's not really wrong, but for me, it wasn't the same, so after that, my OCD looks for 'odd' stuff that doesn't look natural.

Not only that, but the colors in the first one blow the second one away, that is some color in that, I love it!

Your other shots are VERY good, but to me, that first shot stands out amongst all of the others, you did really good on all of these though.

I have never actually moved nature around to shoot before, but wanted to try it on this one since it was just one leaf. However I suppose nature wasn't happy so it gave me dull light for the second days shooting lol.
