Awesome angle and great clouds
That is a wonderful cloudscape of stratocumulus precipitato clouds! I like their halos, then their dark and thick centers.
Fantastic feeling of strength and presence. Maybe try it in a high constrast black and white? It feels strongly Ansel Adams-ish.
Nice picture. Great clouds, exposure and contrast are great. I might change the color/white balance a little – the picture looks washed in blue. Great job otherwise
Cool photo, nice puff in the clouds.
Cool fluffy clouds with the sun up above. I like the dark under layer the light doesn’t seem to shine on. Cool picture.
The contrast between the Stratocumulus clouds and the impending storm front gives the image a dramatic feel.
Great image, I like how the edges of the clouds are illuminated from behind by the sun, making them appear to glow.
The gradient in the cloud is cool, the closer to the center the darker the color. I like the overall composition of the image.
I like the fluffiness if the clouds. Really nice image.
Nice, crisp edges. I like that the clouds are very dense so light doesn’t pass through them as easily. Really dig the focus on the large one.
I like the range of cloud shapes, and how the sun seems to have flipped the highlights in the clouds. I’m not sure how I feel about the plane in the center of the image.
I like the outlining that you get on your clouds. The edges that you get in your image are awesome as well.
Nice job. I like the composition.
Interesting effect in the lower portion of the picture.
I like the shadows present in this image, really beautiful.
Nice image, the clouds are very well defined. I would suggest reducing the blue in the image, its a bit harsh on the eyes.
I like how there is no foreground in the photo. It’s interesting how the whole photo has a blue tint. Overall great photo.
The shadow effect in this photo worked really well!
cloudy with a chance of meatball
Great photo. I really like the way the sun illuminates the edges of the clouds.
I like the coolness of the bright image. Great range of colors and contrast as well.
Love the silver linings. So much puff!!
