I do not mean to try to compete with you in any way.
But your pictures of the sky inspired me to try to take some on my own and look at the sky a different way.

They look pretty good I wouldn't mind seeing the first one with a slightly higher exposure and saturation however

'and god shines upon us' fits with number 2 ? ... im not religious myself, but i feel it fits ? boo tee full shot.

Thanks
I think the first one I chose to underexpose it a little to have the details of the clouds, same with the second one.
The pictures I took with the normal adjustments didn't show as much details or as many 'rays'.
But what is saturation?

This is what I got for the second picture NOT underexposed:
(I personally didn't like it as much..)

very nice! It would be great, if there would be lightnings.

Although what you say is true... I'd personally like to see it either underexposed to the point where you can no longer distinguish details, or exposed normally; but that might just be me. I personally find that your eyes get too busy trying to figure out what is going on at the bottom (the first pic). I do however agree that the second one looks better as it is. Saturation is basically how strong, vivid or saturated colors are in a picture. I'd show you some quick examples, but I'm not on my own computer atm as I'm in the states so I can't really explain it with pictures xD Basically the more desaturated a picture is, the less color it has and the more "black and white" it looks while the more saturated a picture is, the more colorful and overcontrasted it appears.
