Went out yesterday, and got this. I'm primarily an action photographer, but I got bored and went crusing town. Seriously i have no idea about converting to B&W i just used the b&W tool in PS.
Let me know what you REALLY think!

I think it's good. Looks quite disconnected / floating as you don't capture the base of the wall + the contrast is so harsh the shadows of steps seem more real than the steps themselves, confusing the sense of depth. That adds quite a lot of interest, even if it's unsettling. I like the complexity of lines and geometry, and the tonality. Cheers, Tony

Makes me think of an Alfred Hitchcock movie, almost looks studio lite.

B&W is a winner. Perfect shadow angles.

Thanks, I was shooting at probably the harshest light of the day...but maybe that adds to it. I think i'm going to print this one pretty big.
