Hmm... Did you do any post processing? How come there is no light at the sides? Looks kind of weird. Maybe I should go and watch, shoot sunrise one of these days

post processing or not, this is rather good exposure of a nice scene but could be made better if there had been more prominent silhouetted foreground subject(s).

I think the shot might have been done with a really high shutter speed, hence the surrounding darkness

The foreground detail is insufficient to satisfy the viewer, but it's enough to intrigue/irritate the viewer.

Doesn't work for me.

No PP done, just added a simple border. Settings - 1/4000,f16
Wonder if this cropped version is better

A very pleasing and familiar star

Like what the previous Csers commented, a more prominent / interesting foreground silhouette might make the shot more interesting. I am wondering if a vertical crop will make it more pleasing

My two cents worth
