    I like them all a lot. But #2 would be my favourite as with the tree and bridge it really leads to the museum. And the reflection makes it basically perfect imo.

    nice shots, i would have to say the second is my favourite allright, HDR right? if so what program are you using and how did you make it there is a bit of ghosting/haloing personally id try to remove but other than that its perfect imo.

    I think he means that there appears to be a bit of a halo around the main building in no.2

    #1: I like the composition, but it's much too dark meaning that loads of detail is lost. I know it's not poosible now, but this would have ben heaps better if you had've captureed this with the same amount of light as you have in the 2nd shot

    #2: Nice shot of castell Sant'Angelo. the only thing I'd change is to straighten it up, it looks a bit wonky

    #3: where are the steps ??? :pac: I found the Spanish Steps distinctly underwhelming as a tourist sight, but this could've been imprived if some of the steps (and the natives) were included at the bottom

    #4: Again, would benefit from a straighten up. Also, it's cropped in very close around the building. Might have ben better if there was a bit more space around it.

    From the first version of #2, reduce the saturation on the red and yellow sliders - should improve how it looks.
