Three Photos for Critique

first one moving so the branch wasnt there would have been a lot better.

second technicaly the horizen is too centered but it works I like it a lot, print and hang it.

3rd one just doesnt pop play with saturation and brightness.
looks a little underexposed.

#1 - harsh lighting (shooting into the sun) this type of lighting is to be avoided in most pictures. See how dark it's made most of your picture? There's no detail in the trees and the tree line is not special enough to survive being black.

I don't want to sound harsh, but there is a reason only 2 people offered a critique out of 69 viewers.
I don't get any sense of a statement or meaning or feeling with any of these photos.
I would like to know why you like these images . . . what they mean to you. Sometimes we take shots that we have some sort of emotional investment in that doesn't translate to others . . .
