Without a doubt that's a wall hanger. Fantastic shot, great job. That's one of the few shots that keep me coming back to look at it!

All it needs is for the hand of God to come through the clouds! Beautiful shot - I agree, put a frame on it and hang it on a wall - better still sell it to someone to hang on their wall!

might benefit from a bit less cropping of the foreground, otherwise crop out the silhouetted trees altogether.

Martin,
It's a beautiful image and also a great conversion work as usual.

In principle I would agree with duder's comment regarding the trees in the foreground. But you already covered the cropping in image 145 in your gallery and I don't think it is better then the one above.
While I would think more foreground would be nice, I saw in another image in your gallery that the trees are too tall and intrusive. Without being in a higher vantage point (that might be only possible by helicopter ;)) I don't think the image would benefit with more of them being in it.

So basicaly I don't think your image can be improved from that perspective.
I also don't think it needs to. I like it very much as it is.
