Converted to Greyscale, then a lot of tweaks using Levels to get the contrast I liked. Then Hue/Saturation to give a mild "sepia" tone to it. Finally, resize and then very light USM.

Very nice texture, color, and composition. Well focused to boot (that can be a challenge for some). Good exposure considering the existing lighting present. Nice job!
Great shot. A tiny bit blown out in the middle there, but a wonderful interplay of light and dark shades. I really like the dark clouds closing over too.
Every time I look at this shot, it just takes my breath away. The white looks silver to me, and the dark areas look like silver that is oxidized. I like the composition, but have to wonder what it would have looked like shot straight on center. The lighting is wonderful, giving the shot a marvelous antiqued feeling. Just my way of looking at it, of course, but this is great!
We have seen this place before but still one of my favourites this week. Good composition and the soft sepia tone is perfect. So is focus and the cropping. I don´t know how you could have done it much better. Meets the challenge very well. Well done and good luck!
Nice detail/lighting/focus, but the overall subject isn't particularly compelling. Maybe a different crop could have drawn the attention to particular architectural details, or something; as-is, the eye just kind of wanders without being drawn to anything especially.
This is a nice looking picture.
I wonder what the original looks like just to compair but this shot is definitely a keeper in my books. I just can't get over the details.
Good luck...
nice image, good tones throughout and nice range of tones. looks slightly blown out where the light is hitting the inside of the dome. Other than that is is a really great image. Good luck, Todd. (9)
