Yep you got the sky beautiful in the second shot. Not sure what you are aiming for with movement on the pines. I wonder what it would have looked like with a long exposure. Does your camera have a neutral density filter built in so you can get exposure times longer for daylight shots ?

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.
