Honestly, I think you need some sharpening and a lot of curves work for these.
Not meaning to be rude at all or discouraging... you just need to post-process these.
What's the EXIF data like?

actually i tried using some USM and adjusting the hue / brightness / contrast / curves already
these are the orginals [warning large]
how could i improve my post processing?

Hi kenny12,
I think the 2nd shot is better then the first and I think Nnnsic is right, the images seem a little soft to me.
What camera are you using and what software did you use to PP?

Hi Kenny. What I would have done with these shots is to actually take them when the light was a little bit warmer, so early morning or late evening. even in the night you can do a long exposure and get some cool colours in the sky. I think that makes a big difference to giving you a good image.

the shots were taken with the Olympus E300 digi cam with the 15-45 olympus lenses.
yes the photos were taken at mid-day so would have improved from softer lighting
