The 2nd and 5th have some nice compositions to them.

In the third the star pathways don't seem to follow all the same direction. If you look at the stars in the lower right compared to the ones on the left they almost looks like they're on a completely different arc direction. Is it lens distortion, or did you warp the photo in PS? Could be nothing, but looks odd.

That's the good ol' lens distortion @16mm there. Nothing has been done in photoshop except the removal of an epic piece of dust that lightroom couldn't handle in the lower left.
