Good good composition and a very inviting setting.
Colours are nice and natural, as well.
Caveats?
Has to be said that you handled the technical side of things well. Exposure is near spot on.
In looking at and taking your image in some more, believe you could tone down the ever so slightly overexposed areas via post processing. (Nit picking here, really.)
Or..
Only suggestion I can make, if you've not tried this yourself ... is to experiment with the various in-camera settings, referencing exposure compensation (+/-5 stops).
And then that of the varying metering modes/options ... 63-zone Evaluative, Center-weighted Average, Partial (9% of viewfinder at center), and Spot (4% of viewfinder).
The lighting conditions look to have been challenging indeed. And make no mistake about my words here, you did do well. Details in the shadows, detail in the highlights. The above is just some food for thought.
That said..
Thanks for sharing this one with us. And reiterating ... nice one. :o)
The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
I can see why this is your favorite of the day BTK, or as restaurants advertise: "Catch of the day." This would be the one I would dine on for the evening. Excellent work.
