RAW converted, USM, cloned out a fair bit of noise and dust, levels (cut out the light half - that is, moved the right slider half way in), brightness/contrast (10/10), some selective colour on the green (bottom) and cyan - it didn't be looking to have so much effect when I made the adjustment layers invisible though, so it can't have been much.
There were some exciting Turner skies around and I was hoping for birds against the blue and grey. Then I saw this and just caught it before it broke up.
I think it's zen because it's quiet/not quiet. Presents itself plainly enough and leaves you with questions nonetheless.

The main cloud looks like a samurai, faced away from us, holding out his draped right arm and bowing his head slightly. His left hand is on his hip. I might crop just below the main cloud. The clouds below belong to a different story.
