Great subject, composition, exposure, mood ect. I like it a lot. My only suggestions would be to use the paint brush in PS and bring out the lettering on the marquee. Just a little...
Maybe bump up the blacks just slightly to kill the orange tint to the sky.
I am like Barney Fife, I have a gun but Andy makes me keep the bullet in my pocket..
I think you could do a crop from the right up to the marquee sign. It would tighten up the image and bring more attention to the main subject of the shot.
Thanks for the comments. I was out tooling around with my then new 5D. The town square was filled with little blue Christmas lights but the wind was blowing, motion blur on all of the trees.
Greg, the sky is black. When viewed in LR checking the shadows the whole sky except right around the sign, is off the histo black. MB, I cropped from that side already, I can see how more would be better. Lori, Spidey, Way too many SUVs in that part of the world. I tried early AM but then the sign wasn't lit.
