Took this this morning. Converted to B&W.
ISO1600 (On accident, I was wondering why I had to use 1/4,000th AND F/14 or so...

Nice shot! I like the angle. And the B&W conversion is really good. Thanks for sharing.

Great capture, looks great in black and white. Is that the Enron building?

This works so well because the image is uncluttered with the extraneous and thus focuses the eye on the architectural complexity of the edifice. A sort of a paradox.

FYI that's definitely the Enron building. Here's a similiar-ish shot:

ISO 1600 works well in this picture, grainy TRI-X type effect. Well done.
