Overall this is a nice shot. The angle is nice. Here are some tips though:

Have something else in the sky. Some weather, like clouds, would really enhance the shot. A plain blue sky isn't really that interesting.

Generally, you want to keep the entire aircraft in the shot.

Is your AA on? There are some jaggies in these.

Yes, the AA was on but not terribly high. This was a "snapshot," an actual flight with my VA with the weather engine loaded and it just happened to be a clear day. I zoomed in in order to make the incoming 757 large enough to see.

"A plain blue sky isn't really that interesting." Maybe not, but that's what we get in Northern Nevada just about every day. You can schedule a picnic and be 99% sure the weather will cooperate...

It's a beautiful thing in real life, but a blank sky is something I try to avoid at all costs in the sim.
