I like the colours of the sky. I would have preferred more sky and less ground in the image. Looks good.

The colours are beautiful - shame about the big dark cloud in the way on the rhs of the shot.

i prefer the first.

IMO, the light clouds, with a sky like that look quite fake. If you were to lighten the clouds, then the yellows and oranges look WAY too strong. The dark clouds help to create some sort of atmosphere to the pic too.

Nice shot though, and i like the colours.

Nice shot, I like the composition but as you've exposed for the sunset the land is too dark to be taking up so much space. If you took this in Raw then it's crying out to be tone mapped.
