Over all sensational shot. Only thing that is bothering me is the distortion on the bottom left hand corner. Other than that it is a great capture.

I also see distortion of the left hand tufa due to the extra wide angle lens. But a beautiful composition. Did you give the clouds on the right too much saturation?
I love the definition and colour of the clouds, especially the one on the right, I wonder if it would have been possible to merge two shots, a longer exposure for the foreground/sea to smooth it out and a second shorter exposure to capture the clouds ? Difficult but it may be interesting to try if you have those conditions again. Just musing
A few thoughts. I wish there was a bit more room around the foreground structures and some water on the left but that may not have been possible. The image need a tiny bit of levelling. In the center cloud you have what looks like a clipped red channel. I see in the exif it was shot at +0.3EV. I would suggest -0.3EV or AEB for retain the highlights. I would look closer at the red channel and see if you can recover some detail. Unfortunately, in digital, once highlights are clipped they are gone.
I agree; great shot except for the large area of blown-out highlights in the clouds, which ruins the shot for me. Those clouds are a central part of the image and they carry no detail. Otherwise, tremendous color and great composition.
