Looks good! I liked the sunset in the field and the lake sunset the most.
A couple of things I thought of that may help improve your time lapses in the future:
Be careful of where your focus or exposure point is set to. For example, on the field sunset there is a bit of flicker as you camera is trying to decide what to expose for. If you can set it to expose for just the field or just the sky, you will have a much smoother transition as the light changes.
Secondly, I would love to see some of those go into the night, particularly the second shot of the city. I think that would be a nice dramatic addition to the overall edit.
Otherwise I thought they were solid, and keep it up!
 
thanks man i will definitely keep that in mind.
i do wish i could have gone to night, i really want to experiment with stars
 
Stars require a lens with a really wide aperture, I'd say f/2 and above. You'll also need lengthened exposures, and they somtimes can be hella hard to focus on. But good luck to you if you do.

 
pretty sick man, bozeman is always like that so you should keep it up see if you can gett some other sick shit
 
to shoot directly into the sun, you need a clean lens. The first sunset shot showed a lot of dirt on your lens!
 
No worries, it was pretty tight. The timelapses weren't jumpy, which is important. I need to get better at them.
