 Dicovered this place entirely by accident while on a roadtrip.

The overcast day has certainly helped with an even and well balanced exposure. The POV is good. It must have just rained as the water is visible below the balustrade and this has helped improve tonal range and richness of the stone. I'm not fond of the sky, perhaps we are biased by DPC HDR land and cityscapes. As a record keeper it's good and has a fair chance of publication, however a pastor on the stairs greeting his congregation would certainly be more engaging and maybe get to home base.

Very good cover. I'm glad you chose a subject that many would be scared to tackle for this challenge.
