    I like all the different shades of blue in this image, almost looks like the ocean. Nice image!

    The blue gradient across the image is really neat, the light in the corner is a nice artistic touch. The dark clouds are outlined nicely.

    Great image, I love the subtle colors and the wide aspect ratio of the image, which evokes a landscape painting. The foreground has no distracting elements and the color of the sky has a nice gradient to it.

    I like the color patterns in the image. It looks as though the sun is setting on the left due to the darkness that increases as you move right in the photo

    I might be wrong, but I think clouds like this indicate an approaching warm front.

    The wide frame works well here. Maybe try decreasing the height to focus on one layer.

    The image seems to depict layers of some clouds and is quite effective in conveying the scale of mountain wave clouds.

    I like the mountain tips just barely peaking from the bottom of the image. The focus is still mainly on the sky and clouds. Good capture of colors at sunset.

    Cool picture and I like the colors from the sun with the sky. I think you could make the colors pop even more with some processing.

    Beautiful range of color. I like the length of the clouds captured.

    The image is a bit dark, it would help to add exposure and increase the contrast. Nice clouds, I like how many different types there are.

    I really like the colors, the blues contrast nicely with the orangish sunset.

    I really like the view of the whole sky. It really shows the enormity of the clouds. The colors are wonderful and I like the mountains in the image as well.

    I like seeing the fade from light to dark as you move left to right in the image. Great color and exposure.

    I think you the coloring of this image is very good. It is a very pretty blue, along with the sunset in the bottom left. It makes for a very calming image.

    Good image. The contrast between mountains, clouds, and sky is interesting.

    I like the colors in this image, the blue with a small bit of yellow is really nice. I think upping the contrast just a bit would really bring out the clouds you are highlighting.

    I like the extra long landscape framing of this image, exhibiting the range of colors of the sunset.
