I think #3 works, its my favorite of the bunch, really like the layering in the image

This is a very nice set Jeff.

#1,2 are killer.

#3 is classic B&W. A very good conversion. But the color versions are more powerful to me.

#4 seems a little crowded. Not the best of the group.

#5 show the very odd transition from snow capped peak to badland effectively.

The first two and #5 are sublime!

These are great, Jeff. I love that first b&w image, the light and shadow action is awesome.

Thanks for looking and for the comments folks.
I tend to agree Mel, #4 is a little cramped.
