Lovely... Used HDR for this one as well? Love the contrast of the clouds and the chairs/bench

very nice, that's what i think. i love how the lamp has taken it's own role in the skyline. very lovely contrast.

Beautiful. I love the range of tones in this, as well as the engaging diagonals that really draw the viewer into the image.

nice B&W. I like how the lines lead us into the image toward the city and the heavy skies. nicely done I especially like the wooden decking in the foreground.

..taken at QNS right next to the Pepsi Cola Commercial..! Really like your b&w effect the UN building as a focal point and the ESB in the background..!

Very nice to look b&w, like the treatment. The lamppost could be IMHO a bit outside of the center

that disturbing sky in some way... disturbs my mind, but there are a lot of seats to chill out or take a nap or whatever... it seems calm.
I feel all of that, but technically speaking...
the sky or the clouds, couldn't be a bit lighter?
Whatever... that's an excellent picture!

Beautifully composed and I love the tones and detail you achieved with the bottom half of the pic.
I have to say I agree with =bosniak on the sky though, a curves adjustment or something of that sort would work wonders here, but it seems now a bit drab and takes away from the rest of the shot I think

Wow. That's just spooky nice. I love the boards. Too bad about the lamp (in my lowly opinion!), because it blends in with the skyscrapers and seems confusing. Without it, the lower half of the photo would be all west and shimmering, but when your eye travels upwards, the upper half would be all contrast. I wonder if it would have been worth cropping the skyscraper to the far right also. But those are minor things inside a great photo! I love the exposure. And the light. Congrats!

awesome composition (I'd love to see a little more gradient in the sky)

SchΓΆnes Foto. Das B&W passt gut zur Atmosphere und diese geschlungene Bank sieht super aus.

Sehr schΓΆn, aber die Laterne genau in der Mitte stΓΆrt extrem.

I like it.
The curved bench is interesting. The clouds give some texture to the sky. The whole image is well exposed, and the contrast is good.
The lamp post in the center is a little distracting, but theres nothing you can do about that, and once you see it it's easy to ignor. Also the clouds may be just a little dark. But that could be my monitor.
I love that it's black & white. I think it brings out the textures in the foreground more than color would. The grain of the wood... the scatered rain spots on the bench and railings. Very nice!
Like all your cityscapes... it's beautiful.
