Please critique my backyard sunrise.

I love this photo and realize how dark it is. I recently downlaoded NX-D for Raw images and want to play around. Here is an enahnced PP version from another program.

Looking at the image, I don't see anything that strikes my interest. Yes the sun is poking out from behind the trees but it's so minute that it doesn't play the role of being the main subject of the image. If you adjust the exposure up on the trees and plants. Now more interest is drawn to them and the buildings around them and not the sun. There is to much competing with the sun to make it a "sunrise" image.

Thanks. A closer photograph of the unique round roof, with the corn stalks in the foreground probably would have made a more interesting image. I do however, like the contrast in texture and colors. I may edit this one a bit, and see if I can make it worthwhile.
