Not sure if i would have cloned out the flares, after looking at this for a bit I've grown to like them!

I like the shapes here - it has potential as a fine shot. But ... well, processing lets it all down. over-exposed sun becomes almost nothing, the edges of the wing are blurred by compression artefacts if not actual focus. I'm certain you could have under-exposed this considerably, and brought the light back in processing, which would have caused less problems with the sun (and perhaps the lens flares), and the wing could happily have remained a silhouette - with the added advantage of confusing the viewer as to your angle relative to it.

What a neat, unusual take on the sunset. I love it.

I like the wide range of colors present here.

there's not to much you can do with a shot like this. people are either going to love it or ho-hum it. you might consider cropping or cloning out the two flares at the bottom, and maybe boosting the contrast a bit, just to make the wing a bit sharper. good luck!
