You have a portfolio that proves you know what you are doing, so I'm certain this was an intentional decision, but that blue in the second photo is just so overpowering for me. It comes off as bad white balancing rather than an artistic decision. Warming it up a bit and even desaturating it some seems to make more sense to my eyeballs when I look at that scene.
The first and last one are really nice. I had to look some seconds to realize the person in the first one. But that changed the way i was looking at the photo - i thought the waterfall is way smaller first..
The second one.. Hm, yep, that's strange. I agree with Ryan, the color's strange. I mean... I don't know how this happened, if it was an artistic decision or a blueish color cast caused by the filter or something at first, but it looks kinda strange. I think it's a cool waterfall, but he doesn't look as dramatic as he probably could, due to the point of view. This "on level, slightly downward" type of view is kinda minimizing the height of a waterfall. I think he looks way smaller than he is.
And the third one's just nice. I like how themast it pointing up, leading the eye into the clouds, the colors are nice (and this red-green combination works really well)... I don't know if it would work, but i would love to see this with an even more dramatic sky. :)
Together, they are quite ironic.
Lol, didn't even see that :D
