The trees are a little distracting, crop differently? Otherwise, the massive cloud is really cool.
Interesting cloud and mountain mid-ground, but the foreground could use some work.
I really like the cloud in this image. The colors and mountains are really nice. Maybe crop in both sides to get rid of the distracting trees?
The cloud you are imaging is really great, and looks so fluffy. However, the houses and trees seem to obstruct the view.
Neat cloud. Classic to boulder. I think your photo edits are nice. Mountains look great as well
Great colors, the blue of the sky and white of the cloud are very striking. I think the trees in the foreground are a little distracting but too big to crop out, maybe you could try to darken them.
I like the shape of this cloud and your choice to include the environment to provide a sense of scale.
This looks like a beautiful wave cloud. It is interesting that there are no other clouds in the sky. The trees on the edges are cool.
Very sharp, and nice colors and composition. The foreground could maybe be reduced a little, but it’s not too distracting, might be worth keeping it all.
Lovely Altocumulus standing lenticularis! The snow is lovely.
Nice blue bird day that really makes the cloud stand out. The snow matching with the sky is a good touch.
I really like the contrast in color between the cloud and then surrounding sky. I also really like the mountains and the snow in the foreground.
Absolutely beautiful image. The colors are nice and vibrant. You captured the cloud perfectly!
I like the snow on the flatirons matching the cloud color. I feel that the building in the left corner is a little distracting, maybe consider cropping it out?
I like the colors a lot, excellent example of a lenticular cloud. I might have cropped the rightmost tree out though.
Awesome cloud. I like how the cloud is framed by the mountain to give it scale. Great deep blue also
Really cool cloud, im surprised it stayed so in tact. Great image of the mountains I might crop out the houses.
I really like the cloud formation. The trees in front of the mountains are a little distracting, and I wonder what a wider shot would look like?
Does the formation of this kind of cloud mean that air is flowing north/south?
Very cool picture, nice cloud shape and good frame.
The contrast, lighting, and saturation are all good. Everything is in focus and pops
The foreground is quite distracting, but beautiful clouds.
