awesome B/W conversion,
loving the dramatic light and the composition

go and take some pictues of some dramatic clouds and put them inplace of the current ones, chuck up the contrast and black levels and vignette and you've got a super dramatic scene!

Very nice, I wish that column were vertical though.

Thanks everyone! I'll look into the suggestion about adding some interesting clouds:)
I agree about the column though. Didn't try doing any correction in photoshop, I'll see if I can imporve it.

I'd rather lose some of the steps (left) and get the rest of the front statue (right).

Works very well in B&W, and I like your POV
