I'm a big admirer of your photography and #3 caught my eye. It probably nails the rule of thirds to a T but I think that the lower right ½ adds to much of a harsh contrast and dominates the upper half which, to me, is the most scenic part of the image with its soft, subtle, & reflective color transitions. I'd be inclined toward a more panoramic crop to refocus on what I view as the most beautiful part of the image.
For what it's worth.
Raymond, thanks for taking the time to look and provide your detailed feedback. I appreciate it.
