Great job, Number one i really like the contrast in the bridge, however I find the right side and the distant hill side area needing more contrast, looks a bit flat to me. Where number two and three I really like, yet the more I look into number 2 I feel like I'm leaning to the left a little and having more weight on the left side ... so hard to explain..... i like it a lot but this feeling I get I can't explain properly.... not sure if it can be fixed in an edit, I think its more of an angle of the camera as it was taken. I think if you had of stepped to the right a little further it wouldn't have had that feeling.... maybe try crop from the right side a little more?? or not. But I love the shades of whites, greys etc in number 3.

#2 for me. Your work just gets better and better Ozzi!

Yes, number two for me as well. Given this is Tassie, I'm trying to work out whether that's symmetry in this image, or cemetery.

yet the more I look into number 2 I feel like I'm leaning to the left a little and having more weight on the left side ... so hard to explain..... i like it a lot but this feeling I get I can't explain properly.... not sure if it can be fixed in an edit, I think its more of an angle of the camera as it was taken.

I suspect that it's the shadow of the bridge causing this effect, as it falls off towards the left of the image. I suspect that it can't be easily fixed in post. Ozi may need to revisit the location and reshoot at a different time of day.

I prefer #2, 1 & 3. Excellent pics Ozi.

Thanks all. I've been staring at #2 and all I have is a queasy, headachy feeling...

I like that first one Ozi man - i find the sky just a bit bright tho, pulls me away from the bridge and vanishing point.. possible crop from teh top (10-15%) or maybe selective vignetting?
