This was taken out my front door on Friday evening. These are typical thunderheads that often build in North Texas in the spring. I did a resize, levels, and some noise removal.

Well done on a great result this week! You had me fooled about the perspective of your shot. It reminded me of a number of photos I have taken from mid air (although mine had minor problems due to the poor state of the aircraft windows). Not sure if you are looking up at these clouds, or straight on, but the photo has a powerful impact!
Look forward to seeing more of your work in future!
Incredible photo! Great detail in the clouds. Not your everyday view! Beautiful tones. Border works very well with this shot! I'm guessing this was taken mid-air? Would be interested to know how you got such a clear view!
Like the colors, but it seems a bit dark. I like that it's not a 'sunset' picture, but I'm not sure that the 50/50 clouds and sky crop makes it interesting enough.
good cloud shot - you've kept all the detail even in the white areas. Feels almost post-apocolyptic to me - must be too much CNN. I would like to see more of an uneven balance between the sky and the clouds though - currently I can't quite tell if it is a picture of clouds with some sky, or a picture of sky with some clouds.
I've seen a lot of clouds in this challenge, but these are CLOUDS--enhanced by their color to communicate things to me that transcend your image and dwell in meta-experiential realms. Whew!
Those clouds look wild! The vivid yellow toning gives the effect of smoke from a bush fire. Cool pic good one, the border fits this image perfectly as well - 10.
Initial thoughts A beautiful quality of light. Very serene.
Composition/ Content I really like the composition – I wondered for a moment whether the clouds should take up two thirds or one third but I decided very quickly that the decision you’ve made on how much clouds/ sky to include is just right.
The shapes of the clouds are very interesting.
I am slightly drawn to the darker grey clouds at the lower edge and wonder if it would have been possible to avoid including these?
They seem to me to detract from the rather heavenly feel of this image.
Background A nice rich blue.
Border I like the fine yellow line within a darker border – though the back of the border makes the blue of the sky look less rich. Then again, that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
Fits The Challenge Yes!
My Opinion On The Photo I like this image very much.
