Only thing that bothers me is that there seems to be two white spots in the bottom of the picture ... one on the left and one on the right ... maybe just fix those with PS or paint or something quickly and then it would be perfect ...

Good shot. Not great, although take that again on your EOS 400 (when it arrives) and it'll be a million times better.

personally I like the lights. It adds to the scale of the photo and deliveres a punch to the overall size of the clouds, sky, and trees. Without it, I may just say it's just another cloud photo.

As for composition, it's good. I like how you used just enough on the bottom of the frame the root the picture down, but it still pulls your eye up and into the heavens. Your colouring is really good, a full array of tones to choose from. I also like how you managed to capture the silhouettes in perfect blackness which really makes this a strong photo IMO.

get it framed! :D

Hahaha C..

Thank UNFLUX.. I really love it alot. :)

I love the fact it looks 3D.. And yeah I like the lights too, it kinda grounds the black and also I don't think it would look as 3D without them.

I like it, but I think it'd look better if converted to sepia (or b/w) and the curves lowered. :)

Just a suggestion, might be crap but meh.
