    Cool shot!! Looks like a phoenix (or pterodactyl) swooping over!! The sky transition from light to dark is kinda blocky. If you can smooth that, I think it would enhance a very nice picture.

    To me, in the first one the clouds look like smoke from a distant fire. I like it.

    . . . For that reason, I like it more than the second one, even as nice as it is. thumb.gif
