 This shot was taken of a climber doing some cell phone tower work. The tower height was well over 200'. The day was a bit over cast so I convert this to B & W to add more visual impact.

Good luck with the challenge. I like the choice of black and white for this shot. Piry the aerial at the top right is just cut off though.

You've got an interesting subject with this communications tower, but the composition is very static. The subject divides the photo right down the middle, this doesn't lead the eye at all. Leading the eye goes a long way towards a more dynamic photo. With a human high up on a pole like that, it has the potential to stir up some people if you played with their fear of heights...there are some different composition possibilities that could easily raise some goose bumps.

I like this shot a lot. It's really sharp and clear. I'd kind of like to see a color version though to compare with the black and white.

Nice composition. I would have preferred the top part to be in the frame.

Nice capture - Nice tones - The cropped tower at the top is very distracting

sky is a bit noisy ... I think that b/w works well here ... the high contrast gives this a nice feel

Like the b/w on this. Good vertical angle.

Love the clouds. Wish the top of the tower was in focus more.
