Welcome back Chris . Both these pictures are badly exposed . You need some means of balancing the sky and foreground light levels in the first image , either by using graduated ND filters or by blending two exposures , one for the sky and one for the foreground . In the second picture your exposure is out by about 2 stops . This may be intentional , of course , but if not the image below was re-processed in PS3 in a few minutes and may be closer to what you intended .

PS : If you hate the new version let me know and I'll bin it .

Both these pictures where taken to be used in a HDR but i didnt like how they were turning out. Let me work on blending the first picture with another at +2 f stops.

The second pictures is the foreground from one and the sky from the other. I have it at normal exposure and it looks alot like what you posted. I'll post it up in a min.

This is what I came up with for a HDR of the first picture.

That's a lot better. I think the original version had too much black in it. Adrian's edit to the photo is greatly improved to the original, too.
