I'm no great critic but here are my gut reactions:

#1 is dim and low-contrast, but I love the textures and the composition. Definitely my favorite.

#2 is dim and low-contrast, but far less interesting. Maybe if it were a little closer to following the rule of thirds..?

#3 has nice colors and reflections but the composition is bland. Even something as simple as framing the furniture piece farther the right might have helped.

#4 is also strong. I really like the low horizon. You could maybe try a little cropping on the bottom and possibly the right, but I do like it a lot as is.

#5 doesn't do much for me. I want more details, a closer peak. Or else give me more of a sense of the setting/place of this little hut in the greater world at large.

#6 has interesting lighting but is washed out. The composition isn't the strongest for highlighting those cool shadows.

For number 6, HDR would work

Or if you don't have an HDR app/don't like HDR try bracketing it down a bit so the shadows pop more.

Is that snow or asbestos?

i think one and two need more contrasts.

it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.

Out of all of these I like #6 the best. The rest don't really grab my attention.

I like the subject matter. Diversity is good. Too much of one thing is boring.

Closer than you think~ When you dig up the past, you tend to get dirty.
