I think the atmosphere is beautiful, the clouds do add mood to the photo. You're lucky to be able to shoot scenery like this one. Your photo seems too soft, maybe your lens wasn't focused properly?

It looks like a cool scene. I think you could have framed it better with the placement of the branches, though. I would clone out the fragment in the upper left. I wonder if you might have been able to get some more vivid colors with a polarizer?
