Shot handheld - at night - at the Lynchburg, Virginia Greyhound station. This shot makes it look so cheery and wonderful compared to how it is in reality. I took a few shots here, but this one was the most interesting. Hmmm...maybe next time I'll submit the really boring and poorly composed one...see how that'll do...sounds like a plan. Anyway...
Post processing involved a conversion to greyscale, crop, curves, levels, resize and save for web. Ain't Photoshop grand?!?

i think it's great that you kept so much of the cobblestone in the foreground; it adds to the depth, makes the image more dramatic, and it keeps this strong diagonal of the curve that's counterbalanced by the diagonals of the roof and lights. i also like the fact that so many of the details in the image are distinguishable, but you stil convery the feeling of a deep, dark night. very rich textures and shapes.
