This is the bell tower in the local park I am always wandering about in. I have been on a little bit of a B&W kick recently. Lemme know what you think. (yes I know the tower is crooked I wanted it that way

)

I like it, but I wonder if it would be more dramatic if there were more darkness surrounding it, isolating it. I don't know if this would be possible or even if it would be a good photo that way. Just figuring the permutations out loud.

you can just bring it in to photoshop and make the canvas bigger and fill it with black

nice shot....i'm wondering if it would be better if the building came up from the middle....

I can't say why....

but i really like this one the way it is

Thanks melanie! I was actually laying on the ground with my head facing the tower when i took this picture. I looked up, and took it upside down. My gf was rolling with laughter watching me.

wow you have a powerful flash on your camera... :shock: lol jk... neat shot though.

my flash would probably do pretty well at this lol

The tower is actually lit with floodlights at all the corners. I wouldnt want to have to carry a flash that powerful! It would be quite heavy.
