Thanks for the feedback guys.
Photonius, unfortunately I couldn't get a crop that made the first much better. I would have liked to move about 100m to the right when taking the shot but unfortunately that would have meant I would be down the valley and the cloud in the distance was no longer visible :-(
soLong, Yes I rotated the foreground slightly, and then shifted it over towards the centre of the valley. I didn't do a whole lot of PPing other than that. Not as much as portrait photographers! For my normal workflow, I think I am in the same boat as you. I must say the content-aware fill in CS5 has made my life so much easier for removing small distracting elements :-D

not necessarily better, but that's what I meant with cropping (without the need to photoshop the background).
