Denise,
I like the perspective on the second one. The little slope they're walking on adds a little something, and the not straight at the bridge angle works better, IMHO.
I hope you don't mind, but I took a shot at modifying your color shot. First I applied a slight curve with just a single point, then I desaturated about half way. I've included the tone curve to show how simple it is.
