Greetings from the Critique Club:
This is a superb shot - it communicates warmth very effectively, the deep blues don't detract from that effect at all. I think the figure brings a lot of life to the image and the city on the horizon makes this pretty special. The time of day you shot this is just perfect, the long shadows work really well.
I do wonder if including the sun and making this a contre jour shot may have worked too, though of course you may have just lost all of your contrast.
I think your overall composition, sharpness, coloration are all spot on - leaves me with very little to critique.
With your eye for an image, your first ribbon can't be too far away.
