FWIW, there are 7 pelicans in this image. ;-)

I like the sky Bill. The foreground looks a little hdr for my taste, but overall I like it.

Like the first very much... reminds me of where I used to live on the south coast.

The second I'm not so sure... it does work, but I wonder if colour might suit the subject?

The last I like too, nice contrast.

Beautiful pano's sergey....Paris.

These are very nice.
If you don't mind, how are you doing those conversions?
I'm guessing the 12-24? Very sharp!

..

..I do not know where I picked this but somehow for me it works the best,

1. Crete copy of a layer (Ctrl+j)
2. Image-Adjustments-Desaturate (Shift+Ctrl+u)
3. Immediately after it Edit-Fade Desaturate (Shift+Ctrl+F)
Opacity: 100%
Mode: color
4. Crete copy of a layer again (Ctrl+j)
5. Open levels (Ctrl+l) and move input mid-slider to the left,
that will give some glow to the image.
6. Adjust curves if necessary, merge layers.

You can write an action so you would not have to repeat same steps over and over again,

I'm familiar with that method and it works quite well.
