Nice find... but I find the strong line across the center of the shot rather unsettling. Perhaps a composition with the line at a thirds point?

Very interesting composition. It works, somehow, for me, but I wish I could elaborate. Suffice it to say that I just like it. 9

What I like a lot here: the B&W is done very well, brings out a lot of contrast, the texture of the wall is great, very interesting, same for the texture in the water. What I don't like is the separation between wall and water right in the middle, makes me wonder what it is you want me to look at. Both wall and water are interesting, but I keep hopping between them which is uncomfortable for this type of image. To me, at least. 8

I like the black and white use in the picture. I would have cropped it so that the water line was lower.... not in the middle of the picture.

Very nice b/w photo. Crisp details of the stone wall and even of the plants along the water. Contrast is nice and even. I would have cropped more of the water out so you have just a bit of it showing but I know you probably wanted to show the graffiti in the water. Also, the border is a bit busy for my tastes.
