This image of a was taken in Grand Lake, Colorado. The clouds are traveling north east towards Fort Collins. A Canon EOS Rebel T6 was used with a f-stop of 10, ISO 100, and 1/800 sec shutter speed.
I took the following images a couple of minutes apart:
The Skew-T diagram confirms that the atmosphere on this day was unstable. The cloud in focus is a Cumulus cloud and the thin and wispy clouds in the background are Cirrus clouds.

Nice cropping!
I actually really like the dark blue in the top left. It reminds me of a stormy night. You had a very creative way to select the main cloud to increase the contrast!
I like that you included additional pictures to explain the phenomena
Great job! Your presentation of all the information is helpful to understand the clouds in your image.
The color of grey in the main cloud looks a little pixilated, is this something that can be edited out?
This image is focusing on that big heavy cloud which makes it interesting.
That’s a really cloudy looking cloud. I agree with you on the navy blue sky on the top left being too strong. Maybe you could keep the contrast image, but use tools to bring down the saturation of blue in specific.
Lovely Shade of blue in the sky
The way you took the picture makes it look as if you were in the air. Excellent framing!
This picture makes me feel as though I am high in the mountains.
