I particularly like#1, a very creative and unusual view.

I like the HCB-esque placements of the figures in #2 and 5.  The inclusion of the passer-by on the bike makes #3 impressive.  And for #4, you are blessed with the clouds!

Just because it's one of the most photographed places - doesnt mean it's all that easy to get a great shot. I think people just tend to pick up their camera, point and shoot.
You on the other hand made the images beautiful. Great set.

Great set indeed.

I like #1 very, very much. Minor nitpick is i'd like the right leg to be fully included as well (like the left side).

I also like #5, especially the background. Just wishing for a slightly more to the right vantage point to include the entire crane in the arch.

Very different styles... :-) As a local my favorite would be #6, even if the sun is overlapping too much (in my viewpoint). I like seing the tower at a distance :-)

For me Nos 1 and 5 are excellent.
