    Hmmm......sorry, imho it just doesn't do anything for me. There doesn't seem to be a specific subject in the photo, unless you intended it to be the sky, but even so, the sky is quite monochromatic and void. The light on the lower right and the house on the far left are distracting and the foreground is too dark. Did you use a tripod?....the trees look a bit soft.

    Maybe a closer silhouette of one of the trees against the dark blue sky would have been more interesting?

    I'm afraid I'm not entirely sure what you were trying to capture here. There isn't anything in particular to catch the eyes and the sky doesn't have anything special other than the color. Night scenes are fun but you have to find something that captures the moment. Special buildings, full moon landscapes, street scenes, and much more can convey this.

    When I first saw this, I liked the center tree. I especially liked how the sky dwarfed the house, trees and everything else. I felt it put a little perspective to these things we consider big in our lives, that they are small in comparison to the enormity of the world.

    I have to agree it just does not do anything for me either. Could be the crappy monitor but it is so dark. Just not have any POP to it.
