Breathtaking photograph, it really shows age and beauty. I did find the clouds a little grainy (noise), but that’s just a minor detail.

Now that is a stately looking edifice. I look at this image and hear a swelling score punctuated by booming drums. This cathedral would be central to the plot. But this image doesn't cry "hope" for me. Black and white somehow causes that. The lack of color makes that building more aggressive looking. (7)

Nice photo, I like the detail of the steeple and the perspective helps create interest.

Great shot with wonderful contrast. Compositionally this is great and the clouds play a great backdrop on the subject as they are very moody (and thankfully not blown out!) My highest score so far in this challenge. 8.
