I like those, nice coloring.

I think you are not brightening the image enough and I would keep tweaking the tone mapping. When I look at these it looks like you have some type of grey layer over them darkening them, but in places the "grey layer" isn't there like in the second picture off to the right where the trees are -- that area looks more like what I would like to see the whole picture look like. Just my opinion.

Nicely done. Like the look and feel of each of them.
