favorite b/W in a while...love the lines in teh shot..the architecture...the contrasty sky, and the girl walking...all added up for an amazing shot! 7 for me.

The B&W works nicely for this shot. I like the way the lines of the stairs lead to the tower. The person walking down the stairs also adds a nice element to the story, she seems unphased by the scene. The clouds make for an interesting background behind the tower. Well seen and presented. - Charles

i agree, there's so many ways to capture this icon and yours is a wonderful version of it as well. Monochrome editing eally brings out the dynamic sky. compliments Kah

Nice play with light. Like the sky and the tones in the image. I would have avoided the clutter in the center ( part of the city) and given more emphasis to the steps, the girl and the tower.

And how exactly would you have done that Gamini?

Indeed great lines also be the shadow.  The lady makes it wonderful.

Possibly a lower camera angle would have hidden the center details by the wall and may be  a little closer to the figure.

Personally I prefer to see the bridge leading under the tower than have it truncated by the ledge. There's an outtake with the girl closer up on my Facebook page; it doesn't work.
