An "accurate" reproduction of a scene and a good photograph are often two different things.

    #2 looks to a have a blue cast to it. Did you do a white balance correction? Or over saturate for the sky?

    Great capture, otherwise.

    #2. While it may have a bit of a blue cast, (not to noticeable on my laptop monitor) I find the processing well done. I would expect a bit of blue in the open shade given the blue sky and open water.

    The light in the trees looks warm and balanced and I think the bit of blue cast actually added some color to the rounded beach rocks.

    #2 also. I agree with the blue cast comments, but it isn't really that blue. Sure, you might want to put the WB dropper on a few other rocks to see what happens, but I don't think it would change it that much.
