Hi arra - (*) there's an interesting technique that might work well with this image (it will bring out a lot of sky contrast): In PS, bring up the original image, then go to channel mixer. Check monochrome, then put in red = +160%, green = +140%, and blue = -200%. - Ed Hahn

Nice compo, excellent tonal range. Your subject is fascinating... though the scene might look cluttered if you just glance at it, once you really look, the natural forms of the building and its diverse levels flow in a very orderly pattern... in some way it is like watching a skeleton: very orderly, yet somewhat sad and 'macabre'. Cheers!

I really like this one. I agree the tones work. It makes me think of how outdated some industrial machines have become with newer technology arriving all the time.

Thanks,

I don't know why, but I like sepia more than B&W and this old cementery has always been in sepia tones in my mind ;)

This has a vintage feel for me. The sepia tone does this shot justice!
