Nice one, M8!  :)

My only thought would be to top crop so that 1) the planes are more centered in the image and 2) so that there isn't so much "dead space" at the top. Just a matter of personal taste, of course!  ;)

It's a nice shot and the lighting is very good.. Harry has some good points there.

If you choose to, John, you can open the current .jpg in PS and save as a .psd file. Google for VanDerLee PS filters. They have a freeware "snowflake" filter which you can use to make a star field. It's fully adjustable as to "particle" size, density, etc..  8-)

Nice contrast and colours, but the lighting is weird. On some clouds is coming from the left and on some other from the right. It's confusing. The aircraft should be more in the center too imho.
