Nice first try, to improve the image I'd crop the window shade out.
Then, crop the power lines out.

Best regards,

I knew the window frame was in the picture, I just wasn't going to drag all my equipment out to a field at 3am to see if I can take some of these pictures. so I setup my camera with the setting which I didn't know if it was going to come out. My camera is setup on my tripod so rolled up the windows and pulled the trigger.
But thanks for pointing out the Bad crop I had ...............Im pretty sure I would have do a better job on the next shot.
