Fantastic treatment of an iconic location.  I love all of it - can you please explain more about how you created this.

Spectacular sight, Tanni.  Your high-contrast processing really enhances the dichotomy between light and dark, good and evil (to quote Donn).  The sky is equally dramatic and very fitting the scene. Beautiful treatment of this view.

There are some things that stand out to me, though.  One... the parking lot. If I wasn't able to compose this in such a way as to eliminate it, I would have spent years in Photoshop cloning it out or at least removing the arrow signs to disguise Man's impact on such amazing beauty.  Two... there is a bright, narrow halo of light surrounding the darker spires when viewed full-size, probably remnants of a less dramatic sky that existed prior to your processing. And finally, three... I see some evidence of over-sharpening where the Earth meets the sky.

Despite these things, I am most impressed by your photograph.
