IMHO

#1 Just another area of vegetation. Sky seems cloudy. (Question: is the sky very bright to use HDR - wondering ?)

#2 Looks abit tilted. Moving trees in the wind is not suitable for HDR. Makes them looks fuzzy after blending. A Graduated ND filter will serve you better for this scene. Composition normal.

#3 Still tilted, but better overall impression than #2. Personally find the exposure abit dark.
