Nice shot dude, but surely it's saturday today?

If it was me I'd crop out the larger portion of the dark area at the bottom, no detail so pointless having it there really.

Nice shot and you've done it right - exposed for the sky to get the trees in silhouette. I agree with gandhi though, there's just too much solid black foreground with no detail. I'd crop the foreground right back to just below the skyline for a pano (wider) look.

If you're going to show that much foreground you really need to try to preserve a little detail. One way is to take two shots, one exposed for the sky and one for the foreground and combine the two shots via layers in processing.

There's a creative eye at work there though.

To be honest there was some forground detail but it was mostly just road and a speed sign. Didn't exactly fit with the look I was going for! Thanks for the comments.
