Interesting. I really like the fact that you've managed to make a structure like that look tiny. Personally I don't get an ominous feeling from this, perhaps more isolation. The colours are a little flat, although quite natural looking.
The colors are perhaps a little more cheery than ominous indicates to me......I'm used to seeing Gulf thunderheads and I've never seen any this color before, but a good pic nonetheless.
