This is a very neat idea. There is an evident contrast between the colourful nature in the window and the lack of colour on the wall. The window is dead in the centre though. So, my suggestion is to create off-centre composition for more dramatic/interesting feeling. Also the colourful part should be more in focus than the wall itself.

I'm not sure what my opinion is on this one. It seems like the colors could be boosted a little, yet the drab/flat colors suit the subject well. Overall, the shot seem a little grainy/not clear.

This picture in itself is intresting. What do I see? I see a picture in a picture. Makes me wonder what happened to the Roof. It tells a story. Contrast? Not sure. I have to look the word up. "Brush Fire rips through home, Leaving family Homeless in the Mountains.

I am partial to shots like this, where you can look through something and see clearly still what is in background. (or in view). The angle you have chosen to stand at really adds to the shot making it feel like has an extra dimension IMO, that works quite successfully. Looks like the kind of cabin I would like to stay in too, do they take reservations? : )

nice natural framing. I take this frame as a warning to those trees!
