Nice, moody image!

Of course, I couldn't resist ...

I like the full darkness in the top left, but don't like the way it kills off 
the top and left side of the of the 
beautiful line of arches.

- Shadow-Highlight brings up the shadows, top and left and pulls down 
highlights, bottom right.

- Curves brings central brightness back down.

- Classic mask to apply an effect selectively.

- Applied at 50% to slightly brighten the arches and bring out texture in 
columns.

- The upper left got too bright, losing the mystery. Leave just a hint of 
continuation of the second column to show the 
height of the shadowy vault.

- All this processing has brought up the color in the arches and really made 
the slight cyan cast, lower right, bad. 
Take column color down by half, go full B&W in lower right.

- So many choices. ;-)
