I agree they both need more contrast, but from light on the shoot rather than boosting in PP - and as there was no suitable light on the shoot I probably wouldn't have got the camera out !!!
I've shot around those parts for years and binned thousands of images, hence a bit more discerning in taking them now
The Lake District is one of those places where the foreground, middle ground and far distance can all be the same colours/tones sometimes and only more dramatic light can give any separation - I love the place to bits, but it can be very frustrating photographically
