Here's my take. I liked the composition and just lifted contrast, lowered brightness and overlaid a tone that I sampled from one of my sepia/selenium split toned prints.
I also did another version using CS-4's auto contrast control. Again overlaying a tone that was sampled using my own toned prints as a guide.
