I like the first image - not much left of the fall colors but what is left adds some nice accents to the scene and the dark reflections work well. The second image doesn't quite work as well for me - the trees on the left are close to blown out in the direct sunlight and the smoke behind adds kind of a funky blueish cast behind the trees.
There is an issue with Uploading Photos (attachjments). I am not sure what the problem is, and I am looking into it. You can still try to Create your Threads and Upload your Photos, but it is hanging up during the Upload.
