Are those palm trees in the distance? Where the heck are you?

Balance of sky and ground is right; love the backlit clouds. I'm hoping this was in RAW and work could be done to bring out the definition in the clouds, some detail in the foreground (if even just the grass) and the run rays. Plus pump the yellow/orange tones in the horizon. As raw material I like it.

Yes those are palm tress. I am in sunny Spain.
And yes this is done in RAW, but I am not very good at post-processing yet. Will try some of your suggestions.
Thanks for your comments.

Will it give more of a dramatic nature if you increase the contrast bit

Very nice shot. I agree that more contrast could be used to define the clouds. I am new to post processing as well. I wish that I could learn it all quickly!

I wonder if this photo would have benefited from HDR?

I'd push shadows a little to see what I could play with. Foreground could have a lot of hidden color in those files.

Yeah, I'd love a copy of the RAW original to play with. I'm sure there's a lot more color in there to discover.
