The three images selected have no particular artistic merit, but were taken solely to meet the brief. The sky was largely clear with minimal clouds, which is one of the reasons the first image is not noteworthy. Had the sky been more dramatic, the outcome could have been very different, but with only one apparent subject, the trees, the position of the horizon has nothing to balance with. This is similar to my earlier posting of a toy digger placed in different positions on a black background - its not the positioning thats importance, its the positioning with respect to something else which matters.
The second image is a straightforward snapshot. Again, had the sky been more interesting, the shot might have worked, but again we are left with an image where any interest that exists terminates a little over half way up.
The third image brings the foreground into play at the expense of the sky. The track gives a good lead-in for the eye which is an important compositional element.
