I don't know why, but I would love this image if you had taken 2 pics and composited them to where the people aren't actually there, but those long creepy shadows were still there. Maybe it's a photo cliche or something, but in my opinion, that would've given some interesting emotion given current events.

Although... the rim lighting on the people is remarkable. I would crop it down from the top, right down to the base of the buffalo statue. That's a tight crop but would accentuate the light on them and the superb, long shadows. In doing that cropping, you would have to clone out the signs and poles, and retouch out the lens flare on her back. Sounds like a lot but I think it would be worth it. Try it and see if you like it.
