I find the righthand corners a little barren. I faced a similar situation when photographing the Denver Performing Arts Center awhile back and experimented with getting in much closer to my subject and using the reflected sunlight and markings on the pavement as visual elements. Here's the result: http://www.boulder.net/~4season/images/dpac.jpg And it looks like your lens was vignetting a bit; I wonder if you could likewise use that more as part of your composition? A few years back I was photographing Comet Hale-Bopp here in Colorado, and though my lens didn't vignette, the twilit sky was surprisingly bright and I didn't have the luxury of waiting awhile as the comet was already setting over Mount Sanitas. But when I actually got to printing the the negative, I decided I liked the glow behind the mountains and ended up emphasizing it with by burning-in the upper regions of the print: http://www.boulder.net/~4season/images/hale-bopp.jpg Comments and critiques of my own photos are welcome of course.
