Lovely image, only comment I would make is that it feels a little unlevel/uneven, nothing you can't fix in PP. Try experimenting with different crops and rotation, perhaps to reduce the amount of wall on the left at the start.
Edit: I think what I'm seeing is an optical illusion caused by the angle of the light coming in from the right.
Did you try any other perspectives when shooting this, I think a low level shot could be interesting. You say it was clean, get on your belly.
I really like how you've lined everything up, works really well and the way the last arch turns the corner adds intrigue. Try to edit out the detail in the last arch to make it all dark and mysterious. I think you could do without the first light, the half one in the frame.
But these are only very minor tweeks, you've done a fantastic job there.
I was I Cuba in 2012, loved it.
I really like that - The processing is excellent and the whole thing just sings class to me
It's nice, but ultimately it needs something of more interest, so a person way back in the scene would be great. Especially if you nailed it such that they were in the final doorway.
If you're trying to say Havana in your shot, this doesn't com across as Havana, so i'd maybe try another title. Havana has yielded so many amazing shots on it's streets over the years, all bursting with colour, old cars, textures, history and people. Very different to this genre, so folk maybe expecting something else and get a little disappointed.
I would be interested to see the photo in colour. Having been to Cuba and to Havana some years ago, the thing that stood out about the place was its glorious decaying colour and beauty... A wonderful place to much around in and great for street photography.
