    Very cool Kelvin-Helmholtz formation. Very fortunate to have been present during such a phenomenon. good contrast and resolution for this one.

    Awesome job on keeping all of the details in the clouds. I love the wave formations that are on the left. The lighting is really amazing, great job capturing that.

    Really beautiful shot of the cloud. Love the variety of textures seen in different clouds. The black mountain is a little overbearing, I think cropping it would make it less distracting.

    Art: I really like the contrasts in this piece, and I especially like the swirling nature of the clouds that are contained here.
    Flow: The flow is quickly understandable and easily recognized.
    Photographic technique: The focus and the depth of field used in this piece are fantastic.

    I especially enjoy this example of KH waves since they are embedded in the macro formations rather subtly. Perhaps cropping the right side of the image just a little more would draw the focus toward the most interesting part of the image!

    The clouds are showcased very well. Possibly crop out more of the mountains so the focus is completely on the clouds themselves.

    The contrast between the clouds and sky is excellent. The mountain silhouette adds nicely to the image. Also, I like that the light looks like it is trying to peek up from behind the mountains.

    Good job in making the mountain dark enough to not be distracting. Beautiful cloud formation. You might want to consider cropping the mountains down a little bit.

    The focus and definition you have captured in the clouds are great. The shades of blue and white play well with each other. Good image

    Awesome capture of these interesting cloud structures. I really like the silhouette of the mountains and the sun peaking over them.

    Awesome Photo the whites are so vibrant. Perfect balance of contrast in the photo. The waves are very cool. Focus is very good.

    Really cool to see a little bit of the kelvin Helmholtz instability in part of the cloud. This looks like some mountain wave clouds with the instability.

    Amazing definition of the clouds. I really like the contrast, especially how the mountain is pitch black against the bright sky. Interesting cloud shapes as well.
