Beautiful atmospherics in both of these. I really like the first one with the slightly more interesting foreground. The second image feels like it has just a bit too much dark area at the bottom.
Wow Amy! Way to work that weather!!!
I like both of these a lot. Really sweet photos.
On #1, can I make a suggestion? I would think it could be stronger if you cropped a bit off the top to lose the bright cloud along the upper right. I would crop some of it off and then clone out the rest of that cloud to leave a little head space above those 2 smaller clouds floating in the middle. I think those 2 little lit up clouds are a really strong element, so by losing that bright cloud in the upper right it allows the eye to focus on those 2 clouds and not get pulled away up into that corner.

#1 is lovely and I was just about to ask you to look at cropping and cloning the bright clouds at the top but Jim has beaten me to it. Ken

Great captures. Agree with Jim's comments, I might also take some of the bottom off and experiment with B&W conversions.

Thanks all! Good idea Jim, I think those changes you suggested will enhance #1. I'll also try B&W versions.
Thanks Bart, hope to see you there!
