One more from Yankee Boy
I know the foreground is lacking but I still like this shot because of the clouds. This was just a couple minutes before the first light came in.

my desktop version has a little more "pop" than what you may see here. Not an HDR...just a single image.

It almost looks HDR. The colors and all do draw the eye. I'd maybe take a little off the top and bottom and go square.

I really like the dramatic skies in the image Jack, and with a little more pop the wildflowers would really stand out!. The lone chopped off Yarrow? plant at the very bottom kind of draws my eye, I would maybe crop above that as Darren suggested. Nice light on the rocks too!.

I agree with the top & bottom crop to square things up.

Here's another vote for the crop, but I love the lighting and sky here.

Great clouds - looks like was a little windy ?

Nice movement in the clouds, which are very dramatic. The light is also great on those peaks. I will put in my ditto on the crop, I guess.

I like the clouds but I'm not a big fan of the shot overall.
