Default Help me pick a worldwide photowalk picture

Yesterday I participated in the World Wide Photo Walk in Westfield which is a town in New Jersey. We took pictures in a park and in the town itself. I have to submit two of them and I am having a very hard time choosing. I've posted a few below but would really apperciate if you could check the set I have on flickr and see if there are any others that you think are good. World Wide Photo Walk - Westfield, NJ 7-18-09 - a set on Flickr

Thanks

I vote for #2, the sky is so vivid and blue and the entire photo really pops.

my vote goes to #2 and #3.

#2 is just AMAZING, the colors pop so nicely, and the clouds in the sky really did it! though i would crop or clone out the part of the sign in the top left corner. it's not super distracting or anything, but it did draw my eye for a second

Its funny, I like #2 and #3 best, but the guy would is going to decide which photos win for the local group seems to favor #1 and #4 but wants me to crop them both some more.

Great Post, #'s 2 & 3 are Spectacular! I'd certainly choose those, the 1 st seems a little busy although it's a very nicely composed shot, the wall in the last one seem a little distracting to me; although I would have though it would add to the shot, it doesn't seem to quite get there for me. Perhaps closer into the arch or a little farther back hum;.
Thanks for Sharing these
Michael.
