#2 is quite charming, and the colors work well together. Might have moved the camera a bit to the right, to get more sun on the model's face, and getting the model from the center of the frame while keeping the sun where it is. In #1 the model has an interesting setting but she won't like the look of her legs or the barrel-like appearance of the outfit. Hmm, turning her somewhat in the direction of the man would have made the scene friendlier. Then legs closer together, and lift the knee a bit. What did you wish to convey, as the artist?

I actually have quite a few more to edit I just started with these,
but
number 2 there really wasnt sun as it is a lens flare and strobes.

as far as number one just going for something different the male in the back reaching and hungry while the model is posing as if nothing is going on.

Where is her shadow in #1? The grasses in the sand throw a shadow, but she does not. It almost looks like you pasted her into the scene and therefor it looks fake to me.

No desert in Florida, yet

I like #2, more natural, lovely. The first one is trying to be a hot shot but the pose seems unnatural so it doesn't seem as sexy to me.

I like #1 better, precisely for this reason. It's different and made me smile in appreciation.

#2 is very nice.
#1 is just odd, looks like a composite. No tracks in the sand , no shadows, and heels in the "desert".... just doesn't work for me.
