High up in Rocky Mountain Nat Park.

Storm clouds brewing and engulfing the mid peaks.

A nice view of the brewing storm.
I find the image overall somewhat milky and could use some added contrast. Was this taken through an airplane window by any chance?

Majestic view -- a touch of shadow contrast would help cut through the haze.

Even the re-edit is still low in contrast. Try establishing a black point. The upper right is also overexposed and a milky white - that would be your white point. The rest of it would fall nicely in place if you did that, I love the clouds enshrouding the mountains in the middle.
