    This is a great photo. I really like the contrast between the mountains, the low clouds, and the clouds up higher. It almost looks like three images stitched together. Great work!

    I like how there are multiple types of clouds present. The coloring is very good, enjoy the effects in the lighting the sun provided.

    I really like this image! It shows different layering and lighting that make this look like two images have been combined using photoshop’s layering tools. I really like the different colors in the clouds and the way the wind is blowing in different directions. Great job capturing this one!

    – Great photo capture Daniel (diggy)!
    – There is a few types of clouds here which makes it unique and contrasts between the stable and unstable clouds.
    – I like the feel of this photo, it looks almost as if the glow is coming from the cloud instead of the sun.

    I like the different regions in this image. The wispy cirrus clouds at the top are particularly cool and I like the layering of clouds at different altitudes in that part of the image. Personally I think I’d prefer the trees without the additional blurring though.

    Really nice colors, the deliberate smear is interesting, it does its job though. The trees do not take away from the image because of the smearing. Nice

    Art: I really like the color contrast between the dark background and the vibrant colors of the sky and clouds.
    Flow: The flow is quickly understandable and easily recognized.
    Photographic technique: The depth of field in this piece is really well done.

    1. The image is very interesting with the two types of clouds.
    2. The flow is well demonstrated.
    3. The photographic technique is good- nice image with a difficult shot.

    I love how the gray cloud divides the gold and blue sky. Its almost as if you combined two different images because of how different the top and bottom is, which makes this image remarkable.

    Nice image. I like the layers of colors that seem to stack upon one another in this image. The tones and colors make this image dramatic.

    Cool image! I love the variety of clouds. The color contrasts are beautiful. I think the trees are a bit distracting I think if they were in focus it would help.

    Nice dark blues in the top of the photo, which match nicely with the bright yellow at the bottom. The treetops at the bottom of the photo are a tad blurry, which you said you did on purpose. the picture might have been better if you had moved to avoid having the trees in the image, or moved positions to set them as more prominent parts of the image. As is, they look they there aren’t supposed to be there

    I love the bright yellow at the bottom and how the wispy clouds above have a bit of a yellow tint. Provides a nice contrast to the blue sky. The blue is really bright and pretty. The grey cloud is odd, it’s so different than the others but almost makes it look like two pictures in one. Awesome pic!

    The triple color bands in the image area very unique contrasting effect. Removing/shooting around the tree in the foreground would lend to the overall color scheme in my opinion.

    I like how you captured two striking and different types of clouds in the same picture. the darker ones seem closer than the lighter ones.

    Good range of tonality. It was cool to see the change in colors as you scrolled up (or down) the image. The shift from blue to dark to yellow is great.

    Beautiful dramatic clouds, nice dynamic range. I like the yellows at the bottom, and the crisp blue sky at the top, with an angry dark cloud in the middle. Nice!

    Nice golder underlighting on the clouds, with a contrast to the dark shadows. Also, nice having the darkness sandwiched by lighter clouds. Nice depth of field in the image. Possibly consider cropping out the trees in the futures.

    I cannot believe that the clouds in yellow, white and gray color could come out together! Excellent photos shows different type of clouds. Colorful and enjoyable!

    I really like the way that there seems to be two different types of clouds within the image. The way that the light hits both the lower and the upper clouds give the image a cool perspective.

    The color range is great. I like that there is a lot of different kinds of clouds in one centralized area. Great focus.

    Love the color in the clouds. The golden underlight is a night touch. The bottom tree could have been more clear. Absolutely wonderful work on the image.

    Great mix of clouds. Nice contrast in color. I like the rays of sunshine you can see peering through the bottom clouds.

    Nice colors presented from the reflection of the sun on the clouds. Really like the strip of clouds hovering towards the bottom of the image.
