Scary, isn't it? I saw a shot on another site recently with secret serviceman patroling from the rooftop of the Capital Building.
I like the black and white and your perspective. Good contrasts.
I really like the silhouette of the officer against the sky. just one thing...have you ever used a gradient before? It would have added more definition to the outline of the Washington Monument...try it sometime...it's amazing how it works...
Guarding the capital and the Great Monument, he stood there at the ready. Great silhouette of the on duty policeman as he overlooks the capital. This is a slightly above average shot but increasing the dynamic range of the B&W tones would bump it into the exceptional category. Aside for the silhouette of the officer the rest of the photo appears a bit flat in the range of tones. Playing with Brightness/Contrast or adjust Shadows/Highlights/Midtones would greatly help boost the dynamic range. I would say that playing with the elusive S-curve would do the trick as well, but I still have not figured out how to do that in PP.
