I like the subject choice here. My chief problem is that the image seems a bit flat. By that I mean everything kind of blends into itself. I'm still struggling myself with creating more dynamic range in my black and white images- so I'm not sure what suggestions I can make that will help. It might be work trying it out with some different post processing options (duotone maybe).

I think this shot might benifit from a bit more symmetry in the composition. I like the sense of scale. Very cool studyhall. :)

Nice subject choice. My major problem with the shot is the light. Winter produces harsh light to begin with. At altitude, that light is even harder. I'd try shooting this just pre-sunrise, or sunset. That will give you a better quality of light. 6

Shades of San Francisco

Interesting selective desat here. I actually like it. Nice strong color contrast, and I think it makes the image more interesting. Kinda gets me thinking of foggy SanFran. I also like the angle on the bridge. This isn't your typical bridge shot. 9
