what a fine cityscape. the b/w treatment is fantastic and the lighting is superb.

Sublime details and the reflection on the building makes it more dramatic. Where was this taken?

My entry to SWF, i was setting in the car park just waiting for sunrise and there it was, I guess luck was on my side that morning.

Alone Sepia, thanks for your input and suggestion on that one, I will try to incorporate your's and Scott comments on my next project. I am leaning toward what you said, Im a hobbyist and want to enjoy taking photos without worrying about any rules etc, but at the same time comments like Scott's are also invaluable tools of knowledge for everyone. Have a nice day.

Fantastic capture -- as always!! And there is that subtle ominous feeling about the monochrome! Love the cloud reflections on the building -- guess those new, modern mirror like buildings serve a useful purpose after all! Have a great weekend!

It's a beautiful city scape! The fact that you shot it as monochrome makes it even more interesting!

This one makes the whole world spin... the clouds seem to move if I focus on the buildings.

The lighting is just perfect.

Real great shot. Lots of brick, glas and steel and still a wonderful sky. I think the black and white really does it.

Black & white gives it a different feel. Lovely.

Maybe it's due to the monochrome effect that gives the feeling of a storm approaching.
Weather these days..... equal nightmare.
