That's a great looking cloud formation you have there.  I very much like the way
you have the varying colors in different portions of the cloud mass, and the way
the light strikes them from that "underneath" angle.

I think you've grasped the essentials of the lighting and the colors, and the
manner that your lighting evokes that - late afternoon illumination of something
near by something so very big but so very far away.  If this is a new avenue of
expression, I very much look forward to seeing LOTS more of it   :)

Very nice work, Thomas.
