I think the picture works as it stands. I’d maybe bring out a tad more contrast especially on the subject but that’s about it. Depending on the mood you want you could also tweak the image a bit (especially the color balance).
It’s not an epic photograph, and I think if you wanted it to be epic you’d need different scenery (IMO). But as far as realistically depicting the event I do really think it pretty much works as it stands. Nevertheless I played with the image:
I don’t like how the red of the shirt is clipping (in SRGB) but I’m not entirely sure how to make it look better than that while preserving the intensity.
