the green leaf blocking the berry is obviously a distraction, otherwise liked it, 6

composition's a little weak....too centered and the subject is partly obstructed.

Delicate, but well seen and gently captured; a slight move to the left and the foreground leaf is out of the way, but generally a good shot.

Thank you for your comments, I had another picture much closer and even in good focus! I should have posted that one instead. That will teach me a lot though!

Composition: This is okay but it could be stronger. You could either focus on one building or back up and get more skyline. Because there's only a few buildings they all seem to be fighting for prominence in the shot.

B&W conversion. There are a few techniques on effective conversion. One of the simplest is desaturating the image. It is also the dullest. I would recommend googling on how to do this. With a better conversion you would get more striking tones in the picture.

The sky: The sky is somewhat overcast but I can see that there is some details in the clouds. A flat sky looks dull. A sky with lots of details in the clouds looks great. Increasing saturation before the B&W conversion would also help. Unfortunately having the sun in the middle of the shot removes a lot of the detail in the clouds as well. Recomposing and putting the sun off to the side would help compositionally and also with the lighting.

Hopefully you find my comments helpful :)
