The vignetting effect is very interesting and old-school feeling. The symmetry is nice. Increasing contrast may increase the ability to distinguish between the smaller features in the formation. The photo is very cool. Is it just me or is there purple dots in the photo as well, cant determine how that occurred?

I feel like I could jump into those clouds and be caught on a pillow of cotton. The details are really great. The image is a little dark, maybe consider messing with the exposure to keep the details and brighten it up.
This is a great image from a plane, although the image is blurry. The clouds seems like an ocean and the flow can be clearly seen.
Posted image quality seems a little low, consider compressing the posted image less in the future. Really cool aspect to see of the clouds from above. The clouds contrast nicely with the ground. Consider trying to remove the pink dots in post processing.
1. Very cool image from a plane.
2. The physics are well shown.
3. The photo technique is nice.
I like the shot catching the view of the clouds from above. The red dots are a bit distracting, post processing could eliminate these.
Really cool picture. Red dots are distracting and would be nice to see a little more contrast. Doesn’t really look like clouds, look like freshly fallen snow you could walk on!
Really unique vantage point. A little dark but still a cool picture
Art: I really like the brightness contrast between the clouds and ground. I really enjoy the top view of the clouds.
Flow: The flow is quickly understandable and easily recognized.
Photographic technique: The focus of the clouds is great, maybe a bit more post processing to really highlight the clouds.
The top-down perspective of the undulatus waves in the stratus clouds. Removing the red dots would improve the overall quality.
I do really like plane shots, they offer a sense of scale you can’t get from the ground. THe sheet of clouds make it feel like a blanket over the ground, which is a nice effect. My only critique is is that the horizon isn’t level in the distance, try using the level tool in photoshop to fix that.
Cool perspective of the clouds from above. The textures from above look so different from below. interesting what the red dots are and how they could be taken out of the image. nice contrast between the clouds and the sky.
Woah! I really like the above-cloud perspective. Interesting textures in the clouds. Cool photo!
Interesting vantage point for this pic. Nice capture of cloud structure but it would be cooler with lasers involved..
