I had a little crop at one of them, hope you don't mind. Not an earth shattering difference, but I didn't like the green bit trailing out of shot weakly in the original.

In the first one I might also be tempted to crop out the red bit at the bottom, if it was mine.

Agreed, it's totally ghastly. Useful to me for comps like this, and sharing family pics though. I log in, do what I need to do; then I'm out of there.

Now, try the same with the GX20 and the K5 or the K-01....

In that sort of scene you could use an ND grad, or or as Chris says, meter for the highlights and rescue the foreground in PP. You could also attempt a 'pseudo HDR' shot in PP.
Alternatively you could try a 2-shot blend; works very well for tripod shots.
