Rowardennan Sunset
To me it looks like the image was shot at head height, or not far off. Maybe a lower viewpoint including some of those rocks as foreground might have worked a little better.One of the things that seems to happen is that when an image comes straight out of Photomatix it lacks some contrast that it needs to 'lift' the image a bit more.
I'll post a mod in a few mins to try and show you what I mean.

Winter on Ovenden Moor
The way I'd normally do it (assuming you use PS)...Ctrl + A, to select all (have 0 px feather)
Edit -> Transform -> Distort
Hold shift down while you (in this case) drag the top right corner further to the right - this will keep the top line completely horizontal, so it shouldn't impact on your horizon.
OR
1. Select a group of leaning turbines using a marquee with a feather of 5 px or so leaving a bit around around each side.
2. Right click and select 'layer via copy'.
3. Edit -> Transform -> Distort for the new layer with the leaning turbines
4. Repeat as necessary
Hope this is of some help

A Roll in the Hay
I reckon another night with a few clouds and ND grads would help this scene a lot. I don't mean that to sound flippant, but the empty sky and harsh whiteness from the sun doesn't seem to work all that well. Cheers, Sean

Starfish
This is a beauty of a shot, it really is. The water has taken on a wonderful appearance and the wet green looks good against the colour from the sky too. I just can't make up my mind about how distracting the starfish is as it kind of stops you looking around the rest of the image. As small as it is is it seems to dominate the image. I don't mean to sound negative as it really is a lovely image. Sean
