A comment about the edit though. I think the effect you added that basically took points and blended them towards the left would have looked better going to the right, away from the explosion.
Plus as a random thought, perhaps you could try a very light static/distortion effect as though the camera was also caught in this mess. The feel is already there, mostly because of the distortion in the mountains.

Thank you for the good criticism!

Just my thoughts on it though.
