Dave,
I enjoyed several nice shots from this collection. I especially liked the caverns and the photo with the punching fist, even though at first I was expecting the focus on the fist.. What caught my attention is this shot: http://www.flickr.com/photos/disavage/5542383720 The garbage container in the background (albeit blurred) looks out of its place. I.e. it makes the shot neighter "glamorous", nor quite "tonque-in-cheek" ("Rose at the dumpsite").
