You are on the right track with them but try to think outside the box when looking for shots. Eg I would have loved to see some slow shutter or in the shade second synch flash shots.. just my opinion

4 and 5 have the most going for them..

Borderfox, I was trying to get specific shots as I was on a course at the time but I agree in what you are saying.
I took these shots below at a slower shutter speed but didn't do any 2nd curtain sync that weekend. Thanks for your views.

I like the shots that are cropped tight. The pictures gave me the chills, as it looks very cold.

I know what you mean Sheldona, the last one is great. White balance is a bit off on my screen they look a bit yellow.

Thanks for the comments :-)

Flash, I use a Canon Speedlight 430EX and a ST E2 IR Transmitter although I'm looking into some PW's for a next purchase as the IR is a bit of a pain sometimes in the woods.
