looking at pic #2 & #4...

i feel so alone...

for #5, i think having the red&white poles are perfectly fine...
they even add an interesting road-trip-feeling element to the pic,
but it's the out-of-focus leaves/bushes on the right that's distracting.

Yup I agree on the bushes on the right though, guess it doesn't work well.
I had mixed feelings abt including the bushes on the left initially also.

These are really great pictures. Breath-taking shots.

Just one question, is the sky already this blue, or did you do something to make it this colour?
