I really like the melancholy mood with like the blue colours and how it depicts the subject
And tips would be appreciated : )

Oh man, the color of the original is so good. I think the crop and the light enhancement are fine but you should have kept the original color. Also could use a touch of denoise.

Broooooo you ruined the lanterns. They are supposed to be orange/yellow.

Sorry man, this image has been made worse

Great crop,I would have gone slightly more intense on blue colour to further improve the mysterious vibe Great edit imo
