I love that one of no.6, if I knew how, I would Photoshop the guy on the left out (not sure if cropping takes too much of the picture out)

Nice work, perhaps could have done with some fill-in flash, but there's many a time I've not had a strobe with me either.

I rarely use flash but on no 3&5 it was used :)

Probably not too difficult to do, since most of the image on that side is fairly random stuff, and a lot of it is out of focus, which lets you hide a lot.  You could probably just replicate bits from that side, or "borrowed" from the right hand side.

It's a shame the bottom of the image is missing, and I think it would be more challenging to insert that cleanly (if you had another image taken around the same time, with the same camera settings, you may have a chance).

There all very good photos.  I live 4 and 5, although I may personally have cropped 5 slightly more tightly, to remove the blurred tyre of the bike in front.

(That is however a minor criticism, they're all better photos than I'd manage to take!)
Actually, it is rocket science.
