Howdy gang.

I haven't gone shooting since I came back from my trip. The weather's been kinda blah, etc so I did a b&w conversion instead. C&C welcome as always. Thanks for looking.

    Ooooo I like the framing
    I think with some post work this could really pop. Create a larger dynamic range and this shot will shine. Very nice setting and comp.

    Beautiful shot! I absolutely love it! Great tone.

    Awais, Parliament is the seat of the federal government of Canada. It's where all of our (currently ridiculous) politicking takes place, or at least would like to.
    It's located, as you can see, in a beautiful part of Canada's capitol, Ottawa.

    Wow, if this image had much more "pop", it would hurt.

    Nice image, tack sharp, and good work on the black and white. One area you might look at is the deep shadow areas of the front of the wall and in the trees below the wall. I wonder if a little selective levels adjustment might bring out some shadow detail there.
