I like both, the patterns made by the greens and snow are very nice. I would burn the sky a little bit, in places it seems too bright, and there is no limit with the snow.

The second image is very striking. Agree with the comments about darkening the sky ( but only slightly ).

Normally I would agree about darkening the sky but in this instance I think it might distract from the foreground. Both images are fine as they are imo.

Really beautiful images that may be seen as representational but in my view provide very pleasing abstract patterns

I like how the high key treatment has produced a watercolour type effect.

They're beautiful, I'm happy with the skies brightness I find the colours and the brightness of the snow are enough to keep my eye from wandering to the brighter areas of the skies.

Austurbjallar - southcentral Highlands of Iceland.

The scenes and composition are great. But (having just come back from Iceland) the colors looks a bit over-processed to me. And the blank sky is an issue, as others have mentioned. I would not gray it down, just crop out most of it.

I like them both and I'm not bothered by the sky at all. This way, it helps keep the focus on the hills/mountains.
