I hope you will forgive me editing your picture. It might be my old eyes but I found the first couple of images to have a significant red/ pink tint. I've never seen pink rocks before so I took the liberty of removing it. (with Faststone Image Viewer).

I think there might be a little of it left, even so. What do you think?

You do have some interesting walks in your area! I particularly like that isolated building near the end of the set, with a slight preference for the colour version.
They do exist. You can buy pink granite chips from garden centres. And the chalk in the fields near me can be distinctly pink if the setting sun is right.

Nice selection - 6 and 8 are my favourites, I like the gentle mono treatment

No problem with your edit BTW. I quite like it, and if there is a bit of a red tinge left, to my (poor) eyes it's a good sign, as it more realistically captures the scene. I did remember my ND filter has this effect and adjusted the colour temp (in haste I might add) from 6473 to 5492 in RT, but obviously this was inadequate. I had another look and lowering the temp even more begins to turn Blue, as you would expect, I shall now use the colour picker more often. Thanks for the comments all.

A pleasant and interesting set - I like the colour shots.
It's just personal preference but (differing from Lenny), more contrast and local contrast (clarity) would benefit the mono conversions, particularly the first two, to enhance the textures.
