I like it.

Thanks, Gr8.

That's a beautiful composition, and the B&W is a great choice. Too bad it doesn't show much of the entire mission. Last time I was there, scaffolding kept me from getting good shots of the main building. I wonder if that is still the case.

Thanks, Sparker, unfortunately, yes, that darn scaffolding is still there. I took many shots but had to crop out the scaffolding in camera which is why I shot sections of the mission (like this one) instead of the mission as a whole.

Beautiful shot, keeps the eyes busy with an excellent comp and an interesting FG, well done

Thanks, Frank

There is plenty of detail and levels to keep the eye interested. Did you use a polariser to help with the sky?

Lovely composed shot, this works realy well in B&W. Wish I had taken that shot

Thanks John, no I didn't
