What a simple but pleasing composition. My only real critique would be to consider your white balance when taking photos of extreme white/black ranges. Your images has a very strong blue cast to it, which could be eliminated by setting the appropriate WB before shooting.

Thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated 
Thanks JR.
The very strong blue cast was the actual colour of the heavy frost as the Sun began to set, due to the frost reflecting the darkening blue sky above. It's not actually all that strong on my monitor though, or the Raw file either for that matter. It may just be a monitor thing

Great shot.
I did notice the blue glow on the ground but figured you may have increased the saturation for the sky.
Is it Spean Bridge area ?
