Hello and welcome to DPS,

In the critique section you should only have one shot per day for the whole critique section.

The two shots presented have a lot of potential compositions wise, you have a good eye for beautifull scenery but your settings are to my taste really out of wack!

In the first shot, it is clear that it is overexposed but it could well be the way you decided to shoot it for an artistic use. There is very litle contrast and color still available .

the second shot, Your WB is way off, were you set up to tungsten or something like that? The shot is very well exposed but there is too much of the bluish green color that takes away my interest. Again it might just have been what you were after.
Be specific about what you want critique on.
