Hi from the Critique Club,

You asked for your shot to have a comment from a member of the Critique Club.

This is a wonderfully clever shot. This could be so many different things. When I first looked at it I thought it was a the sea, a jut of land and then sky.

I think that there is some things that you could do in post processing. Unsharp mask just to bring out some details. Shadow and highlight, again for details. Then it is time to play around with the hue and saturations, selective colours. A lot of details could be brought out with just a few minor tweaks.

The more I look and study this shot the more I like it , well done

super abstract - sadly this crowd does not value the genre. 8.

Something to give these awesome clouds reference could have added to this picture and the intensity of The Storm. Without a reference it is quite abstract.
