One thing I would try doing is adding some more contrast and balancing out the Levels so there is more depth to the shot. 40D ~ EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM ~ EF 50mm f/1.4 USM ~ EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6L IS USM

Here is my wing at it Barry. If you are using Photoshop, go into the levels adjustment and take the left side slider and move it towards the peak on the left, and take the right slider and move it towards the peak on the right. That will make a huge difference on the shot. From there you can add a touch more contrast and saturation to deepen the sky. I'm no pro but anyone else have anything to add or subtract feel free. 40D ~ EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM ~ EF 50mm f/1.4 USM ~ EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6L IS USM
