Wow. Great shot -- the sun behind the building and clouds works AWESOME. I think an auto-level work `nicen` up the building a bit. This is one of my favorite, but I don't execpt to see it in the top 10. =/
I like it howyou captured the clouds accentuating the shape of the the tower, but I think the darkness of the tower is dominating the picture too much. I woluld have liked it better with more sky on the right.
I'm partial to monumental pieces...this is nice. I like the contrast of gray to darker grey. Might have liked a little more white clouds, but, hey, nature doesn't always cooperate, does it?
Either a touch more exposed to show the details of the building more OR a touch less exposed to make it more of a sihouette would have made it more effective for me.
Glad there's a little detail (windows) in that black. The sky is nice and dramatic, almost as if the bldg is giving off steam or getting ready for ignition. IMO, some positive gamma adjustment to bring the windows out just a little more (you could always punch up the blacks if they lose density), would make the big dark area a little more interesting.
Very cool! The creepy lighting immediately brings scary things like Stephen King to mind. Although this building probably looks ultra-ordinary in daylight, the photo is all about the lighting and you did it wonderfully! It makes me question whether I'd step inside or not! Good job!
