Good shot and it goes very well in mono.

I do not quite understand the blackened sky in this B&W rendering of the scene...I never did like that #25 Red (black sky) type look to represent blue sky...it just seems "not right in Black & White" to me...why would something that is the brightest area of a scene be the densest, darkest-toned part of the scene? I mean...that's not the way B&W tonal values work...

A very nice image, but I agree with Derrel about the black sky. It works better for me cropped down to the cloud, to about 8x 10. Is he buried in NYC?

Actually, it was a overcast fall/winter day, just a blah of a day so I figured let's spice it up with blackened sky... lol
