David,
It might be my laptop but the leaves in this image appear to be a bit soft. Was this a hand held shot? The color intensity is more like what I would expect for this early morning light. I still would favor cropping the dark shadow on the right. You need a little of it to set up the photo my eye would react better with a bit less of the darkness. They are both good images but my eye would go with Part

Hi David...

Nice shots of what looks to be a beautiful fall morning. I have one nit with both of the images, in that my eye is drawn to the shadowed area as much, if not more than the beautiful foliage. I think that this shot almost frames the scene with the shadow, and therefore that, combined with the rocks in the foreground has me appreciating this shot a bit more. I think both would benefit from some slight cropping down the shadows though...

Watch your shadows in the weeks ahead! And good luck!
