Chris, the line of clouds and the colors are eye-catching. I find the reflection of the warm tones in the bank of darker clouds, making me wish I could see more of the dark clouds. I also like the way the lines of the image guide the eye to the right of the frame, where there is interesting detail. But then, I come back into the image to enjoy the shapes and colors. Thanks for sharing.
