Skyscape challenge met. Good colours, layers of clouds and FG Mountains. There is a strong mood in this image which always helps.
Already noted is the fact that the Skyline dont seem to be level. It's possible of course that the mountains are running diagonally away but this is of little concern to the viewer and with very little detail in the image to convince the viewer otherwise.. it becomes disorienting and the most logical conclusion the lazy viewer can come to is.. it's not level
It's a pity that the sun could not be more sharper and more Starburst effect. Even at F19 the lens you used did not help much and this is always the case with longer focal lenses - BUT there seems to be a definite softness not only to the sun bit also the mountain line.. A further drawback to the image.
Finally the crop seems a bit of a pano which in itself is not a problem. Certainly helps strengthen the horisontal lines in the images where rythm and layers are used to good effect.. yet the blacks on both bottom and top gives the viewer very little to look at and I find myself bouncing back and forth between lines and what also could further distract the O.O.F cloud line. In a wider perspective image this is not a problem but because this is the main scene... it doe snot help.
That in a nutshell from me and I hope it helps a little. Enjoy your travels and photography
