The skull, Mmmm I think it's a distraction, along with one or two other high contrast areas of cloud do draw the eye, or mine anyway. Not sure what could be done with them.
Had the skull been the focal point then great but I think in this case it distracts the viewer from the story in the image.
Above all I feel the explanation and story behind the photograph is what makes it really special.
All too often we see photographs which obviously have a story to go with them and they simply bear DSC-2367 as a title??? Having gone to the trouble to take the camera to the location and back, take the photograph, process it, store it then upload it, a couple of minutes to give it a meaningful title and a brief explanation about the scene seems a trivial effort which can transform an 'ordinary' photograph into something special, giving considerable extra enjoyment and interest to the viewer. I know a picture tells a thousand words but it can't always explain everything. /rant!
