All critics welcomed. This is a second look in bw of a color photo I

put up a days ago. Thanks to those who take a look.

I love the mood captured by the exposure. I would love to know the technical details (exposure, lens, ect.). Nice work !

I think this one is much better. I like the moon, a great touch.

Thanks Paul and Matt. This photo was taken after the sun had just sank below the horizon directly behind the church. I captured this photo (on a tripod) at all sorts of shutter speeds with a 18-55mm and a polorizer. I picked one of the exposures that had enough detail but yet created enough shadows to form a good foundation for some work in ps. I used the channel mixer to get the tones in bw that appealed to me and used a white color dodge on the lighting to enhance their effects. The sky is rendered clouds with some gaussian and motion blurs and a touch of wave generation. In other words ps, ps, and a little more ps.
