Foray into landscape photography - looking forward to criticisms

You might want to try bracketing the photos next time, specifically the last one. They are both quite nice and the composition is great, however you can see that you really pushed the limits of trying to lift the brightness in the mid-dark tones. You likely exposed for the sky to get those wonderful colours but couldn't quite get the land bright enough because the range of values was too great for a single exposure so you used the fill light or something like that and cranked it introducing a lot of colour noise.

The best way to achieve what you are after would be to bracket and compose in Photoshop.

But they are nice. Well done.
