I visited this as a very young child and used to have a replica on a necklace. It's long since gone, but I do recall the gradiosity of the thing! I like the added grain and black and white is a very good medium for this structure - if I recall, it's silver in color.

I love the Arch - although I haven't been there recently.

Nice image - it would really nice if the water were calm to project that mirror like reflection.

Overlay is nice and subtle on this picture and I think the overall cool tones add to the frosty feeling.

Wow! 600 feet tall! I can't believe it. Our Tower of the Americas is 750 feet tall and it looks to reach into the heavens. Maybe at some point you could get this photo with a person in it to give even more a sense of the scale. I am in awe.

I love the slight added grain. It works well and enhances a kind of nostalgic feel to this photo.

This is a lovely shot of the Arch. I am not sure the grain is needed, but it does work. I think I may prefer it without (at least as I imagine it would be without). I nearly freaked when I went up the Arch, somehow the view from the top is a bit unnerving.

You have the knack for choosing the right texture for your images

Sunlight on steel always seems to be particularly effective in black and white: maybe it isn't steel, but it has that feel about it. I think I like the graininess - although it has perhaps a sense of being added after the show - could be just because I know that - as it goes against the obvious approach.
