Thanks so much for the compliments! The 2nd one has a bit of Sepia added in. (not really "Sepia" per se, but rather a warming curve added in Capture NX2)

Whatever it's called, it looks great

Just an addition - I don't think the first shot isn't stunning too, because I love the color and drama in the sky. But I think the tree blends in a little too well with the cloud. For some reason the tree has a bit more definition in the sepia version, is all.

Eia

The sky is beautiful in the first, the second calms me down!

Both are excellent shots, I think the sepia version is a bit more dramatic. The only suggestion I could make would be to put the tree off center in the composition.
