Nice first attempt. You might add a bit more drama to the natural beauty of your shots if you did not keep the horizon centered. Similarly, in the shot where there is an individual, dressed in muddy red. He(she) is almost unnoticeable and being centered, to my eye, detracts from your shot. Try to get your color to be either slightly more pastel like, or more vivid, whichever you are trying to portray. As presented now, it looks slightly washed out.

As an example of what I mean look at the works of Allison Shaw.

Keep working, you have a good eye. Some of your shots have good potential.
