They're all good. But 1,2 & 4 I like a lot.

I really like the tower and the church. I quite like duplicating the layer in photoshop and converting the duplicated later to "Overlay" instead of normal, seems to give black and white and most images a real pop.

One piece of advice I would pass is to make sure that your horizons remain horizontal - Belfast Harbour seems to be leaning out of the right of the frame !
