The composition of the frame is lovely, with the dark bottom half as a silhouette, and storm clouds above.

Beauty for sure. Lovely contrasts between sky and landscape, dark and light. Those ominous clouds are divine

I just love this! The shape of the landscape, so dark and details is a great contrast between the soft colours and shape of the clouds.

I just wrote a comment but the page didn't load so if you get two, you can delete one :)
I wanted to write that to me the mountain seems like it has been cut out of black card.
I like the shapes and the sun in the clouds too. You are lucky to see this sight in your daily life!

Almost looks like a painting. Nice effect with this very dark foreground...

That's really terrific. It gives a real sense of power in the clouds.

stunning shot. there's something very peaceful about this composition, and you have done a beautiful job of capturing the soft tones and layers of light
