Great subject. I agree with above comment. Except, I suspect the picture was taken near sunset.

I'd suggest you make sure you hold the camera absolutely parallel to the subject to maintain perspective.

IMHO, the subject is cut in half both horizontally and vertically. The "rule of thirds" might be able to be modified for this subject, but should still be considered and experimented with. I would be interested in seeing the un-cropped version.
