i like the second one the best... i thin both could use a touch more contrast... and perhaps a tad more saturation in the second one.
cheers

Had issues initially seeing the pic but now it's fine.
1st pic - Love the cool colour cast to emphasise the chilly morning. The DOF is rather nice as well but I'm not too keen on the subject matter.
2nd pic - Well capture lighting, but wondering whether the composition might have been better if the sun was off to the top right or top left corner so you can capture all of the sun rays and the light shapes created on the ground.
Either way, well capture and might be worth a revisit

ahh ok, wasnt even sure if they would work at all. i used the adress from my deviantart space. photobucket wont seem to let me upload photos larger than 400 x ... if they are it resizes them to that even tho they are small enough files. maybe i have to many photos on there

ah well.

I really like the second one, it's funny how the sunlight can be so harsh and soft at the same time, and I love the dewy grass.

Nathan, looking a bit crispy there. We have been getting these -1 and -3 and very icey in the mornings here down the bottom of SA. Nice pics though captured the coldness.
