I like the way the trees are included in this shot. The angle is really nice, and photographing clouds is always interesting. You are correct in saying they are very puffy... very pretty.
I noticed you had one comment saying that the colors were a little bit dull, and I think I agree with that comment. This is a great picture, but, I've said this before in other critiques and I'll say it again, the colors are what really make or break a shot. Color can make a great picture amazing. When the colors in a shot don't really capture my attention, I do one of two things.
1. Move up saturation, move down exposure and brightness, move up color sliders
2. Convert to black and white. Converting to black and white often creates a very dramatic shot.
Doing either one of those suggestions I think would make this great shot amazing!
Keep up the good work!

I think this is a very beautiful shot. The colors are a little dull for my taste, but the light and pastels of the sky really give it a positive, memory searching, feel about it that makes me want to remember those old summer days.

Um, thanks, I think. Not sure how I can fix pale colors when the day was pale to begin with (it had just rained a couple hours prior).
