Default Cropping

I think this is nicely taken but too much sky can take away what you are trying to achieve. I would try cropping it down from the top a bit to where the clouds are.

bardya,

Depending on what shape/size you want photo sized, left one-sixth could go too, with little loss of effect. Beautiful end to a day, that.
