Gene - Of the two sets you submitted these are the two I find most 
interesting:

I think this one might be have been improved by waiting until the 
couple had moved more to the left, so they didn't obscure the statue, 
and by framing the photo to lose the snippet of fountain on the right 
and to make the feet of the walkers visible.

Here I really like the contrast between the elegantly "dressed" three 
"ladies" holding up the building and the stark glass structure.  I 
think cropping it tightly just to the left and right of the two outer 
statues and just below their "feet" would make the composition 
tighter and more interesting.  Level adjustment in PS to bring up the 
face of the rear statue might help, too.

Just my reaction, of course.  Hope you find this helpful.
