I like the first one. I see the idea of contrast the tidy lines in the background with the untidy ones in the foreground. I bet you have lovely detail in the foreground.

a quick question, Shaun... why f/22? at that point, you're starting to lose image quality due to diffraction... might not be noticeably in a composition like this, but as a rule, i find it's better to use apertures in the f/8-f/16 range, which is the "sweet spot" for most dSLRs....
i like the second shot a lot... one minor niggle, for my personal taste i'd prefer a bit more contrast, and perhaps a darker sky - maybe a polarizer would help?
cheers,
Rocky

Image 2 made me feel homesick.....lovely shot and very typical England, sigh.
