Great photo... it has a mysterious quality to it. One suggestion, tho. Since there's very little color in it at all, I would convert it to monochrome and see how it looks.

Well, I think the colour version wins.

Silver Efex Pro + orange filter.

Fair enough. A photo like this one is good to play with because there's a lot you can do to it in post that can change the entire feeling of the photograph. Giving it an overall blue cast, for example, would tend to lend an ominous quality. I like the B&W version you did, although in hindsight, it's not as dramatic a change as I expected. So, I guess it's a tossup ... and, of course, in the eye of the beholder, ... as to which one is better.

Wonderful capture. I like the color version as it adds more depth and dimension.
