Nice perspective. It might help to use the "rule of thirds" in a case like this. Place the horizon 1/3 from the top or bottom to strengthen the composition. Try it out by cropping this shot.

Diagonal trail does a nice job leading my eye into the photo. I like that you included the people in the deep background. High key treatment works for the most part but may not appeal broadly.

Really cool with the starkness, and I like the five figures in the distance - for me that adds a lot to the shot.

Too much white for me. Maybe crop some of the sky?

i like the simplicity here but i think it could use a little less sky, and i'd like a little more info on what the bench looks out on

uff the baskett is distracting and hide the benche, without it a good photo. was impossible shooting on the reverse angle? the composition with the horizon on the middle isn't the maximum...
