The 1st shot looks like it was a gorgeous scene with the clouds moving to reveal / conceal the milky way; captured at just the right moment to give the image mystery. However, the foreground and the horizon line do feel to me like they don't blend together as naturally as they could; the near-pitch-black sky at the horizon makes the foreground seem superimposed.
Other than that, a beautiful composition!
Matthew,
Thanks and I intentionally brightened up the foreground to bring out the details in the Rock formations.
This was shot about 10-15 minutes before complete darkness so there was enough residual light from the sunset to light up the clouds and foreground.
Maybe not what you would expect to see but that's how it worked out with the exposure.
