I like how the clouds flow over the mountain. Really beautiful image.
Love the composition, the cloud wall is cool
I really like how the lower clouds seem like an extension of the snowy mountains. The colors are really nice, as is the framing.
The array of different clouds throughout the image is great. It adds some depth to the landscape image.
Beautiful picture and great capture of cloud physics. Do you think this cloud is disintegrating or forming?
Nice image with the clouds, sky, and mountain. I like the shadows as well.
Great image, I like the two different clouds and the transition from white at the bottom of the image and blue at the top. The colors are very nice and the white of the clouds and the snow is very pleasing because it is close to true white.
The foreground of the image is pretty intense, I like the overall composition. The upper cloud is accentuated by the slightly darker coloring.
Lovely! I love the layers and how the clouds and the sky and mountains intertwine.
The Foehn cloud wall looks like a blanket on the mountains. The shadow of the smaller cloud in the foreground is very cool.
The white foehn clouds and mountaintops work nicely together. The two different colored clouds are nice as well, it adds a nice depth.
Real good shot of different spot outside of boulder. It sure is a fun wall cloud. It’s cool to see the clouds at eye level. Along with the grey cloud up front. Shows a difference in the sky.
I like the contrast between the white clouds and the snow. The two different layers of clouds is cool. The image seems a bit grainy.
This is a beautiful image! I love the contrast of size and the wispiness of the clouds against the stark, sharp edges of the mountain.
The cloud is nicely captured. I like the mountains in the background. Great photo
Really cool image and I like that these clouds look so close and similar in altitude.
I really like how the low clouds are bright and white which is very similar to the snow on the mountain top. I also like how the cloud in the middle is darker than the rest it provides a nice contrast.
Very cool how you can see the mountains in the background and nice view of the cloud.
Great color, contrast, and detail in the photo. I like how the clouds over the mountains are white an the clouds closer over the foothills are greyish.
Great image of the mountains, I really like the striking white on blue contrast. I would suggest taking down the exposure a bit to bring out the contrast. Overall very nice.
The picture online is distorted in its resolution a bit. However, the image on the projector is beautiful with a great foreground and contrast.
Super cool cloud. I like the darker grey cloud in the foreground and white poofy guys in the background. Really nice composition.
Beautiful location! The layers of the clear sky above the other clouds above the mountains works well together.
Really nice. I like the fun cloud wall.
