First one is pretty darn cool. Tis my fav of the bunch. I think the background works the best in that one as it works great with the color scheme; the best color scheme IMO is in the first shot as well.

As always thank you for your kind comments. Artyman you are correct the shot would have been better with the feet in, so here's one ):-
