I keep experimenting with high contrast B&W. Learned whole bunch for these five days.

i love the composition in this, graphically brilliant. i'm not sure whether i'm much fond of this high-sharpness tho.

Cool - centering and odd back-tilt works for me. The sharpness along the edges of the glass panes looks a bit unreal, though.

Yes I am too. This is a very good shot. Clearity is perfect and an over sharpened image on brick is perfect to show every tiny detail.

Great job here.

Very cool. Window reflections always make for interesting shots. Only things that pull it back - jaggies around the frame from too much USM and the tilt at the top from the lens distortion (unavoidable unless you had a ladder handy). Very nice shot.

Great shot! Beautiful PP and wonderful play between the reflection and
the window, good crop and angle add to the dramatic effect of the shot.
I just love the tonal range and clarity in this shot! ;)

Very simple and effective photo. The tonal range is great as is the focus. The only thing I don't like is the molding on the windo cuts through another window in the reflection. Overall though I really like this.

I'm seeing so many great photo's that if I had a gallery all the walls would be filled.

Love the strength of the window on the wall - don't love the reflection in it.

Like the processing very much.

Very nice, I really likke the tonal range, the sharpness and the contrast, including the contrast between the soft, diffuse image in the window and the roof/shingles, etc. To that end the reflection of the building seems somewhat out of place. The other comment is did you look at trying to improve the distortion due to the pov? Ideally since everything is squared off the window would be square too. Overall great vision, excellent B&W conversion, keep working on this it could be really specatular.

This is really a cool shot. I especially like all the various differant textures, lines and tones as they all compliment each other so well.....

Hardcore sharpness along with the interesting lines and textures makes this a real interesting and artistic image.

I really like this shot. The over-sharpness really works for this particular shot, and reminds me a lot of some work I used to see in B&W magazine before they became 90% ads. The grain adds an old-time element, and the perspective even works for me, although I imagine you'll get comments to the effect that you could try and fix it.

One of the better subjects and compositions in this project I have seen yet. A good eye and a good instinct for choosing to go the way you did with this one.
