love the sunset very striking, to my eyes the horizon is not level.
what a contrast to no2which I still like, would maybe lose some of the foreground and the post on the right.
I always like the type of tones on no3, a productive day I think.

I love the 3rd and 1st. Perhaps the 3rd could do
with more light in the foreground? I find the
second needs a clear subject. Maybe cutting off
some of the space on the left of the light house
can give a bit of a push?

I agree with Zafra's comments.
For #2 I would be inclined to go for a pano crop. Chop at the LHS lamp (get rid of it) and take off some of the sky and a lot of the grass as well. Perhaps just under the chairs, and have about the tree's height above it for sky. (i.e. the sky = about two tree heights worth.

The horizon on #1 is level, the clouds and wave may make it appear not. A very compelling image.
The reservation I have with the revised lighthouse shot is that the right bench gets tangled up with the tree. I'd get out my axe and chop it down right to the ground. (The bench, that is.) Then if you're going to have benches dropping out of the sky (and it's just as well there are no people in this photograph), I'd put the middle one just to the left of the lighthouse and the right one just to the left of the tree. I'd resist putting a dead body and an axe where the right one currently is.
The third one is a bit flat and lacking detail and tonality in the rocks where you probably also need to counteract some flare. It would also help to crop up from the bottom.
