These are two lovely pictures. There is a real moody feeling about them. My only thought is, if you were to crop some of the sky off, I think they might have a little more punch. The first picture I would crop down to just below the small dark cloud, and the second, Just a little above that small dark cloud. Still good picturs.

Jeff...

I love the mood conveyed by the different colors of the hills and by the fog.

I saw an opportunity to (IMO) change the look of image #2 by doing the following and I wonder how you like the changes...

1. Cropping the top until the border is just above the small cloud near the center of the sky.

2. Cropping the left side intil the junction of the Rule of Thirds lines are over the village.

3. Increasing vibrance but, not saturation.

4. Slightly sharpening the image.

5. Placing a frame around the image.

I have saved the edited image on my smugmug account at

I will not post it on CiC unless I get your permission. Like I always say, post processing an image is a very personal thing. Just because one photographer likes an image one way, that doesn't mean that this is the way that the image should be displayed. It simply means the two people see things in a different way.
