This is about a low of angle as I could get of the Doll House. Pretty much had my camera sitting in the sand for these.

Though this is not the Doll House ruin here...this is another shot taken from an angle with the camera down in the sand....had to crawl under the little alcove to get this one. Lighting in the doorway....courtesy of Jim Talaric.
I sure do like the second one with that bright green sprig of grass in the foreground.

At first I thought the light was the sun, I would have figured it out eventually... maybe. I like the first one, but the bottom corners are little too dark for my taste, I'm all for a little burning believe me. The second is my favorite, like John I think that little bit of grass really adds to the image.
I actually like the composition of #1 the best, but agree with Jeff about the dark bottom corners. #2 is pretty nice too, especially with the green grass, I like the low perspective of all 3 though!.
Overall I like them all but would agree with others on things like the dark corners and the rock in the left corner.
I really like the composition in #1 the best with the exception of the dark corners. #2 is my overall favorite. Like John the green grass in the foreground helps make the shot.
I really like the low perspective in all three. Well done :)

Really like the low angle in the first image. The light in the last is pretty creative as well.
Nice stuff, Rick. Compositionally, I prefer #1, but the dark corners are a distraction. I think you could get away with a crop from the right on #1 if there are distracting elements that you tried to burn down. I like the POV in all of these.
