As a person not being able to make anything like clouds, here are some 
comments: there is IMO at the same time something natural as well as 
unnatural in the image.

The connectedness of all the clouds seems unnatural; the colours and the 
whiter clouds behind the darker clouds makes a very natural impression 
on me.

I know.  This still needs tweaking.

This was the main reason for the exercice.  Glad to see it convinced at
least one viewer.

It seems they look good where the light and dark interact, but that both
kind of creep out.  If you just move the transition in the color_map
that might take care of it.  But those little details can be notoriously
hard. ;)

The clouds' colors would fit in more if you made it look like it was
near sunset.  The blue color of the sky makes it look like it is close
to noon, so the brown colors make the clouds look <cough> polluted.
