A vertical crop may help with composition. What post processing did you do here?

I just grayscaled it, then a little contrast work. Finally a little vingetting to help darken the edges. I agree a vertical crop would help. I will do that and see the results.

thanks!!!

Or even not cropping so close and movign the footprint out of the center of the frame. Nice detail and exposure though!

the above critques are right...the exposure and focus are beautiful.....although a portrait style crop would have done it better justice.....
