Thanks guys,
This picture was shot in colour and I converted it to b&w with the help of a video tutorial.
Its my first attempt at processing b&w which Im happy with, so I was just seeing what other people think.

There is a website dedicated to the history of this Chapel if anyones intrested.

Thanks Mstar,
I used a DVD guide that came with a magazine called Digital Photo, Decembers edition. Simple and easy to follow videos, recommended.

Was that the one with the Newark Plane?

If you used elements, then you did a very good job.

not only the conversion is amazing...but the way the images is composed with the clouds in the background gives a strong impact to the image...
B/W is the strength of the image...taking you back to old times...
