You are correct, gorgeous light especially in number 3.
Great leading lines in #1 & #2; and, yep - the light is super in #3. We have quartzite around here too, Felix - dating back to the Rocky Mountain's orogeny. These are another fine addition to your theme.
And I‘m sitting here in Germany…
Fantastic pictures

Thanks Wade. Appreciated
Thanks Eric.
Thank you Klaus.
What a great spot you found! I like the way the rocks frame things in #5 - is it getting cold there yet?
Thanks MeowZzz. I am lucky to be close to some amazing coastline. You can tell Autumn is on the way. The evenings are starting to get cool and the days mild. A pleasant change from what has been a very long hot dry summer.
Wow what a beautiful spot and you got some fantastic shots of it 
All great - my favs are 5+8
