The first photo I cant explain. On the second photo I know I should have cut out the railing but your input on every thing else is helpful.

could you explain what it is that you can't explain about the first one? I don't know what you mean by that. unfortunately, I also don't know what that thing is in the foreground (tree stump? loch ness monster?).

2nd one is better. easy to crop out the railing, but, it definately needs to go. otherwise, pretty good composition. sky appears to be blown out but might just be some low hanging clouds. maybe some increased contrast/saturation could help those houses really pop.

I agree with above.

Not sure if it's my computer, but the 2nd seems to have a lot of noise.  ???

Nice job on the crop, I would like to see a bit of that sky cropped out as well. JMO This could give it a more panaramic look. After holding some paper up to my screen to simulate a crop, I noticed that if you take too much off the sky in the top, you run the risk of centering the buildings of interest, which is a no on (rule of thirds)...so what im trying to say is just remove a bit of sky off the top, it isnt adding anything to the image. Nice capture

I'd be tempted to clone out the railing not crop it. Yeah your "Nessie" was a bit daft!

The third image is better, especially because you remove the disturbing railing. The only thing I dislike is the sky, seems to be missing depth.
