very interesting, love the texture, composition is great too. the highlight of the sun is nearly blown out but doesn't really affect the photo badly. good job. 8

nice sky shot -sweeps you through. Cropping the trees out would give this a boost imho.

I wouldn't have expected someone to use clouds as texture. I imagine you will be penalized by the folks who believe that for something to have texture, one should be able to touch and feel its texture. I get where you're coming from with the picture though. I can imagine the sky feeling like cotton glued onto construction paper - which brings me back to the first grade. Kudos - 7

Strong image, and a refreshing take on the challenge. I just feel it lacks some punch, some point of interest, or some process to hold the eye but also let it wander. Minor point - the trees - in or out of frame, but like this seems like indecision. Hope others give you some latitude in challenge terms.

Puffy-Fluffy clouds. They make a neat texture.
I think you should of completely trimmed the trees at the bottom.
Good luck in the challenge.

I like the idea of using clouds for texture.

You sure youre at an airport? Can't tell from your photo, but I like how the clouds are used to create texture.
