The saturation really gives Breaking Bad vibes, very cool!
Really nice shot, I think you did a great job dialing in the exposure to capture the little details present in the clouds! The deep blue of the sky is a nice contrast with the highlights of the clouds as well.
I like the color transition from dark blue to navy.
I like the deepness of the blue, it almost looks like the photo was taken at night if you just look at the upper right of the image.
I love the contrast between the dark blue and bright white of the clouds. In addition to the contrast of the dark underbelly of the clouds and the light hitting the top of the clouds.
I like how fluffy the clouds are, and they look massive! I also really like the gradient.
These are the most interesting clouds to watch, because they’re always moving and evaporating at the edges. The intermediate cape value makes sense, and I think you’re right about the classification of cumulus humilis.
