Neat atmo effects from the smoke!
Undecided about the top dark cloud layer....perhaps a crop?

This is absolutely fantastic! I love the layers and the rays. To me it would be even better if it were cropped just above the distant mountains into a panorama, thereby losing the dark clouds at the top and the very bright are right below that. I don't understand the f/11 choice which is into diffraction when depth of field is a total non-factor since everything in the image is at infinity.
