igor.yermak,

Improve in what way? Post processing? The next time you take a photo like it? It's cropped a little close, and the colors are wonderful. What else?

It is nice as is, however if you are seeking suggestions, offsetting the exit of the tunnel so that it is not such a straight on shot may make for a different end effect. Have you also tried this with the high dynamic range (HDR) technique that may add a little more detail to the shadow areas in the tunnel?

Im not sure what that is or how to do it

The software that most photographers use, other that Photoshop, for high dynamic range photography is called Photomatix. A trial version can be downloaded from their site at www.hdrsoft.com . Since this is a trial version, it prints their logo across the image but you can learn the process. Most HDR images are created from three or more shots at widely varying exposures. You are essentially exposing for the shadows, midrange and highlights and then combining the best of all three levels. Do a Google search on HDR or "high dynamic range" and you will see many varying HDR images as well as links to some excellent tutorials. Perhaps those with more knowledge in this area can add their experience to the thread.
