I like this John, but feel it looks/appears a bit sooty and a tad too red. You have the detail there, it just seems to be masked.
I'm not saying this is spot on and it needs a tweak more to reflect the scene/time of day, but raising the Exp, getting a better WB you start ti see what you have captured. I think 1/1600 SS would have been better. Personally I would remove the distracting element by the muzzle and for continuity have a more uniform top LHC.
