Default Street, low angle

What could I've done to improve this picture?

Night time

I was out for a walk and did not expect to take pictures so I did not carry a tripod.. I had to put camera on the sidewalk for this shot...

ISO 100, f/2.8, 10seconds, Auto WB, Pattern (evaluative) metering.

I like the composition. The only thing I would suggest is maybe a change in white balance shooting at night in auto wb usually produces a picture that is to warm...at least for my tastes. Very minor though and I like the picture as is.

Thanx for reply.
Yes, I should have set it to tungsten. Too late now. Do you think focus is wrong?

I think I would have included more of the city light background and less of the leaves in the foreground. Increasing the aperture and exposing for longer would produce a better depth of field...
