Very nice series. The second is my favorite, though I would try to tone down the highlights on the right side from the artificial light source. Maybe a crop of the left side to remove that lit up rock face would be good too.
Thanks for pointing that out. I had noticed it but I really should have managed that a bit better. I like the water run off from the falls so I knocked down those highlights quite a bit. On the left that is dry vs wet rock not a highlight, regardless it is distracting.

A truly dark, unpolluted night sky will be blue. All of your's are blue, with subtle differences (more purple, more green, etc) only appreciated when put side by side.
Definitely things like air glow, city glow, aurora, zodiacal light, clouds, lightening, and twilight can affect sky color. I suspect that most milky shots will be captured between astronomical twilight times.
I found using a Photoshop 3x3 pixel color picker and the info tab the most consistent and objective way to determine the sky color.
That being said, I think the sky color is highly subjective for the photographer and viewer. Unless it is a non blue color, it is artistic license.
It was just a little nit though. Please don't take it as anything more.
Great shots, all of them.

No problem, I really do welcome the feedback. It is very difficult to get a good match, specially when you have them lined up one after the other for easy comparison. I do have some shots from Utah with some nice dark skies. I went ahead and took out some of the blue an darkened the sky a bit, it does look better I must admit.
