hi Sergio, looks really great. I would have used a white border - but that's my opinion. The light here is very rich and dramatic. Well done.

Best regards, Daniel :)

Great shot Sergio, all the warm colors are just amazing. Keep it up.

Impresionante imagen. Viéndola desde una perspectiva menos bucólica que el resto de la gente, te diría que la forma de las nubes, los colores rojizos y la luz apocalíptica parecen mostrar la explosión de una bomba atómica.
