~Catch-All~
This is the Old Tennessee State Prison in Nashville, TN. I entered the colored version of this shot before, but I wanted to see how it would look in B&W.
I added a new sky with clouds, the original had no clouds. I converted to B&W using several adjustments in levels, curves, and channel mixer. I wanted a high contrast look. Let me know what you think. :-)
Exif: F Number: 5.6, Exposure Bias Value: 0.33, ExposureTime: 1/1000 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 18.00 mm, Model: NIKON D200
