The clouds are beautiful, but the some of the foreground included is distracting.
Outstanding colors and cropping, could do without the lamp post
Great image, I really like the cloud colors. There is something about the orange hue of clouds that just really pops out in a photo and it looks great.
The sunset in the background provides a good variety of colors. The texture was captured pretty well.
Great image, the cloud detail is very visible and the colors are very nice. The power lines to the left are a bit distracting, you may want to remove them. The light pole near the center could also be removed, or you could reframe the image so that it is at the center.
Very nice colors in the image. I like the way that the omnimous clouds to the left go into the bright sunset and sky on the right.
Great image! The colors are very nice. The light poles and power lines are tough to avoid in Boulder.
I love how you captured the entire spectrum of colors as it fades from the right to the left. It would have been sweet to capture more of the light coming from the right.
Really nice. I like the bright clouds, there’s some fine details in there. Really nice contrast.
Really cool cloud. I love the sunset colors being shined on the clouds. The streetlight and the power line in the foreground are a bit distracting.
Very beautiful image, nice color and frame. Good job.
Nice colors and clouds! The light pole is pretty distracting and the highlights are a little overpowering right above the mountains. It’s cool to see how this cloud changed from when you took the image to when I took my image.
I like the contrast of the colors of the sunset on the right and the gray dark clouds on the left. I would try and crop out the lights and the power lines out of the picture.
This is stunning. The range of colors is appealing.
Really great colors and clouds. The setting is great too; i like the lights and power line in the shot.
Stunning. You should erase the the street light and power lines.
Beautiful image, love the diagonal framing of the cloud and color is amazing.
Super cool cloud formation, very nice colors. I think this image pops really well, it might be even better if you cropped out the telephone pole.
