Daily Calculation exercises Day 8 - bishop versus knight endgames

Today I created 5 exercises from the game I played against FIDE-Master Alessio Boraso from Italy, Milan.

I got a big advantage in the opening and an extra pawn in the endgame. He defended well and even won the game on time. Let us see the exercises:

I got this critical position. How to capture on d5?

White just captured the f7 pawn. What should black do?

Black just captured the h2. How should white react?
White wants to exchange the rooks with Rd3. What should black do to keep the initiative?
Black played g5, How should white react?

Today we had a family holiday day Me, my wife Andrea and my daughter Eszter went for the Aqua World Aqua park in Budapest. We enjoyed the hot water and the nice lunch there. 

Tomorrow I will start to play in an International Tourney in Budapest.
