Interesting concept and photo - makes me feel sad. I think the black and white treatment is effective.

My Latin is preptty rusty, but I think I get the translation. If so, then I think the drops in the lower right should be more in focus.

I like the subject matter, the tones and the composition for the most part. Judging by the edges of the tower against the sky, it looks to be oversharpened. I think that's what is causing the noise in the sky too. Depending on what format you shot this with, the original could be sharpened at approx. 125%, 0.5 to 1.0 Radius (0.5 for JPG, 1.0 uncompressed TIF), 0 Threshold as a good starting point. Then the re-sized version could be re-sharpened using approx. half the Radius. Hope this is helpful.

Well composed , while I am by no means an expert in photoshopping things I think this photo has a ton of potential that hasn't yet been realized. I think by playing with levels and textures you could get an excellent shot out of this.

At first i thought I would like to see the clouds more in focus, but as I looked at it I really started to like how the subject really pops out with almost a 3D effect.
