Strolling by the iconic Dragon Gate after midnight

After attending a cocktail reception, and hanging out in a Jazz bar in San Francisco I walked around Chinatown to take photos. It was after midnight when I took this shot of the iconic Dragon Gate with the lanterns spanning over Grant Avenue in the back.

 

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