From the CTP MkII

First Impression:
Nice. The photo pretty much speaks for itself... doesn't need a title although it does get strengthened by it. 7.
Composition: Isn't it a bit tilted? Anyways, off-center works. But I'm left wondering... wouldn't it have worked better had it a vertical composition and about 50% skyspace? Just musing... 6 or 7.
Subject: It's a great subject and it DOES meet the challenge. An 8 or 9 from me.
Technical: I guess it's properly exposed... if not a bit on the dark side. Personally, I'd give it more contrast, but I guess it's fine as it is. 6.
Summary: A top-notch photo, IMO, with a potential for greatness -- with proper tweaking. Congrats on the top 25.

Greetings from your own critique club.

First Impression
Very Nice shot, has the WOW factor.
Composition:
Very good composition. Just wondering if it's little bit tilted.
Subject:
I really like the subject. Definately meets the challenge.
Technical (Colour and light):
Veri nice colors and ligting. If I am not wrong you used Dodging and Burning in PP. Works for me, nice.
Improvement:
The picture needs to rotated little bit. Just wondering if it was possible for you to take this from different angle, may be moving further to the right side.
Summary:
Very nice image, good PP. Meet the Challenge, has some WOW factor for me.

Over all very nice image. Congrates on your Personal Best.

I'd love to see some burn on those clouds. I might pan back just a bit but overall, the image is very powerful. Amazing that it's still standing. 7
