while the skies look good the towers are way too dark with no details

Just too dark to get a feel for the "twin" or the detail in the trees. Nice photo, but the lack of detail in the subject makes it very un-Ansel.

Except for the drama in the clouds there is little of the spirit of Ansel Adams in this shot :-(
No details in the tree, no sharpness in the clouds and that white house on the right just doesn't belong here.

Fun interpretations but way too dark for me
