Jetstreams at Sundown

Noticed this the other day and took the shot. I cloned out a powerline or two, cropped, and desaturated the orange light at the bottom a little without making it grey, but there's still something missing for me, so I figured I'd post this draft up here for everybody to check out. Tell me what you think, and if you think I could do something further to help this pic out. Maybe cropping or cloning out the city lights entirely or something...? Thanks!

I like the picture actually. The only problem i have, is that i tend to look at the lights at the bottom, rather than at the contrails, since the whole picture is kind of dark. Maybe crop a bit of the top to make it less dark?

My eyes also tend to go to the lights at the bottom. I think it may work better if those lights were more of a haze (like a sunset), not totally sure how you could change it to that though.

Interesting shot though.

Thanks for the input, I'll try working with it when I get the time and see if I can improve it some. :)
