Great shots. Caird Hall isn't it ?
Number one is really good. I like the 'compressed' perspective if you know what I mean. You could have perhaps gone with a tad more contrast for impact but that's only a suggestion.
Number two I also like. I think you've managed that extra bit of contrast.
Number three and four - It's great to see some spring colour at last. The vertical could be straightened a bit on the buildings. Nice depth of focus and nice to see flowers in a town even though I know where they are.

Like these shots Eileen very nice, could not choose as each has it's own merit.

Thanks everyone! Yes Phil it is the Caird hall! It was lovely seeing all the colours of the flowers, and the sun was shining in Dundee for a change! lol

Yes I agree with you Phil, perhaps a little more contrast on number one or with polarizer filter on for extra oooomph, like contrast on number two. I do like the last one best though.
