Help me pick photos for a contest please!

[Laura]

So I'm back from Zion and having severe nature withdrawals. All I've managed to do today is drink coffee, put a load of laundry in the wash (but not dryer), and look at photos for hours. And hours. There is a photography contest and I think I'm going to enter some of my latest photos, but I'm limited to 2 and I can't decide which 2, so I need the feedback from all the amazing photographers here, and/or anyone who just likes photos. Please vote which 2 you think are the strongest:

#1 Classic Narrows


#2 Narrows Rock


#3 Entrance to Wall Street


#4 Yet More Narrows

my favorite is # 3 because I love low angle shots and the pebbles build a wonderful foreground with the motion in the water. The light bouncing off the walls in the distance make the composition inviting, too, it's like an invitation to something what's behind the corner and where you don't know what to expect.
I usually end up with Narrows low angle shot like this and love it.
Just my .02 cents

I like the comp of #3 better than #1 but the temp of #3 feels too cool to me.

I like #2 the best because of the way the water flow leads your eye to the rock and then beyond to the narrows. #3 would be my second choice because the light at the top of the frame is saweet!

Thanks everyone, really appreciate the feedback. I think #3 is a little too cool temp-wise as well, I've got another version I'm working on. So far #3 is the winner and #1 and #2 are tied.

Warm up the non water part of number 2 with a little photoshop and you've got a good entry!

2 and 3 are my favs.

I'll add another vote for #3. I like the boulders in the foreground for added interest. Nice shots.
