Oktoberfest in the Glow of California's Redwoods

We were invited to an early Oktoberfest party at friend's home in the hills of Los Gatos, California. They have a big house and a backyard surrounded with tall redwood trees. I took this shot of the settling sun through the redwood trees with the vintage Dream Lens, which produces interesting lens flares and sunbursts.

 

I processed a balanced and a paintery HDR photo from three RAW exposures, blended them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.
