Shot in RAW at ISO 800 with Pentax K10D. B&W conversion in Photoshop using adjustment layers. Some dodging & burning. Follwed by a soft light blending mode for the building only. Then all but the sky sharpened using high pass filter.

C&C welcomed.

I really like it apart from the big dark bottom right bit.

That's a mound of pebbles for foreground interest. Doesn't looks so dark to me on my screen. No shadow detail lost.

Looks like fashionable wood chippings on my LCD.

They look nice beside the creepy building that says 'chainsaw massacre'.

Good job on the processing, the tonal range gives a real sense of mood to the scene

I like your composition as well, nice job
