I call it looking for something to put in front of the sky - I'm always doing it :) and these three trees and the road work just fine for me. They ground the composition and let the magnificent light and colors in the sky star.

It will always be the foreground elements which add depth to the scene. It's the illusion of seeing three dimensions that including the foreground elements provides. Super wide angle lens is great for a sky like this, although I see some fisheye distortions (which you could fix with PTLens). You didn't list shutter speed. The trees seem to be in good focus. The clouds appear to be smoothed, as if by a longer shutter speed allowing motion. Nothing wrong with that. The sun horizon event is just beginning. Surprising to me you captured any detail at all in the landscape, as including the sun rays usually causes stuff to go to silhouette. Might be a HDR blend, which could explain the soft detail in the clouds. I'd look at a reduction of ghosting in your HDR program. I'm probably all wet on these comments, so please ignore, if you wish. The really good thing about your image is that it caused me to take a close look and analyze forensically.

Gotta love the cat. Always indifferent to what we'd like them to do.
