NICE city lights!  However, here's a concern I noticed... it seems that you
have a very cloudy daytime and a very clear nighttime.  That will
definitely be unrealistic.

And yes.... the daytime is so extremely bright, that you won't see anything
on the night side.... but if you concentrate on the night side, then there
will be lights.... which are as bright as the stars.  But on cloudy earth,
only portions will be seen.
