Good one. The night shots I like the most have been taken before it's completely dark & there is still some glow in the sky. Try it & see what you think. See the difference in these? Ships at Dusk

I appreciate the advice, but it was a target of opportunity. I was driving through for work and stopped off to take the pic.

Understood. OTOH, if a shot is worth taking, it's worth taking twice? ; )

I concur with Photos guy.... I liked the pic you did but since it's always there there are opportunities to get it in different lights. The results might be surprising
