What were you trying to accomplish with this photo. I'm actually quite fond of the silhouette. The underside of an airplane usually isn't the cleanest thing in the world, so I think you've done the right thing by under exposing the aircraft.

As for the composition, you've got the rule of thirds taken care of with the vertical stabilizers, so I think you could have broken it with the tail and put it exactly in the center of the frame. Too bad the rudder wasn't straight ahead.

I was doing trial and error shots because I'm still trying to work on my overall photography skills :) ...and since the lighting was quite bad, i was trying to shoot without destroying the pictures (practicing.) :p
