"The worst thing about taking a great image is that your next one has to be better!"
Striking image - It's an interesting juxtaposition - I really like the crispness on the lamp and the overall D.O.F....though I think I would have gone wide open. Something is off for me though, it might be the centering of the lamp on the building. I'm sure shooting-angle options were limited though. Still striking - I dig the BW.

If you saw this on my FB page, you may have seen that I said I originally passed on this image, I wasn't feeling it. The straightness of the building threw me off, but if I straighten the building, the lamp is not straight.

Something may be off but the sharpness and the tones are excellent.
