Those clouds are steam clouds! should've known doh! I'm so silly hehe. Still like the shot as much as I did when I first saw it and perhaps a bit more.

beautiful capture. Comp seems a bit tight on top. Amazing just the same.

Nice capture - I think a tighter crop to get rid of that distracting electricity pole in the foreground would have helped add more impact to this great shot.

Great clouds and exposure. Just wish the whole tip of the antenna was there. You could have edited out the top to give it some space.

Wow! That is clouds behind the lighthouse? If I didn't see the title I would have thought a volcano erupted or something! Those are some seriously intense clouds!

Great shot, shame about the very top of the mast being cropped off. 8

The cloud/fog background is striking!

Interesting - and arresting - juxtaposition, and the clouds look more like smoke than anything. Foreground tonality is strange, and perhaps the landscape purists would have you clone out the telegraph poles. I guess some sill tell you its underexposed, but I think your choice is quite carefully made, and quite effective. Dealing with whites like this is a tricky decision.

Incredible clouds. Almost looks like Mt. St. Helens blew again. Good contrast, crisp. The bit of red near the top is nice. 9

Those clouds look amazing! what a neat vantage point. The only odd thing is the ground looks strange desaturated , even if it even was. I see why you might have decided on it, perhaps just a partial not full desaturation would've been better?
