i love the last image where you have nice detail on the culvert thingy. the rust and lines are shown so nicely, DOF is lovely! i would probably crop this one though. i find some of that stuff on the bottom to be a little distracting. And with that branch cloned out as Pascale suggested, it would be even better...less to pull our eye away from subject. it's a wonderful capture, Doug! hope you don't mind that i cropped your image to show you how i would do it. i'm not that great at cropping, but you get the idea anyway.
