I love all the different layers and textures you can see. The colors really help with that. Nice image!
Looks like a painting and the silhouette of the foreground
I like the contrast and saturation in this image considering it looks like it was taken in mid to low light. I love looking at lenticular clouds and think that they should have been more of a focus on the image!
Awesome photo and editing! I really like the gradient of the sky as well as the silhouette of the mountains.
The clouds are beautiful and the colors in the sky are wonderful. I like that the clouds look like they are glowing.
This is a really great picture. I love the way the light hits the clouds and shows off their details.
Great lighting, contrast , focus. I like the trees at the bottom as well.
Nice looking lenticular clouds, and the trees look nice. Good color gradiant from the sun as well.
I really like how dark the foreground is, the silhouette frames the clouds nicely.
Nice picture, I am amazed this image was taken by iPhone, very wide dynamics range. I like the framing.
These are some of my favorite clouds to look at with the layers. Good shot for an iPhone.
Great image, I love the diagonal lines bisecting the image. The dark foreground adds to the image and gives the clouds scale. The backlighting from the sun also allows the cloud structure to be easily seen.
Sweet clouds. You captured them well. The added contrast helps the image pop. I really enjoy this image.
Good capture. Might be interesting to investigate what causes the formation of the cirrus clouds above the lenticular clouds.
Beautiful lighting in this image! I like how you framed the shapes of the lenticular clouds in this image. There is a remarkable amount of depth as a result.
The colors are and contrast are really cool. I like the black of the of objects at the bottom, but the rest of the image is a bit dark. The number of different types of clouds is interesting.
Ominous lighting and color contrasts. You’ve captured quite a bit of detail for taking this photo with an iphone! Overall, great focus and saturation.
The contrast is beautiful. The bright whites of the bottom really stand out behind the tree silhouettes.
Beautiful! The soft edges are wonderful, and the composition is well done. The focus is very much the clouds.
The image was captured very well, the contrast is great. I like all of the cool colors, and the difference in cloud shapes.
Cool picture, looks like waves on the ocean in the top left. Nice image
Great contrast and color. I like how the sun illuminates the edges of the lenticular clouds. I also like the blue gradient effect from the top left to the bottom right.
Nice image, great clouds you captured. I like how the buildings are blacked out. Very nice overall.
Really nice! I like the fingering formations on the left and the island-looking clouds.
