The Rotunda-Black and White

[smn554]

I took this picture in one of the buildings where I go to college. It is one of my favorite places to be so I felt that I should photograph it. I think it needs tweaking though. Maybe the biggest change would be from a different perspective and having more contrast. Any thoughts? Oh, I converted the picture to black and white.

I used a Nikon D5000 with the Nikon DX AF-S Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 kit lens.

I noticed if you crop off a little from the top so you don't have the dome part in the photo, the stairs don't seem like they stop abruptly. One thing I like about photos similar to this is that they seem to just keep going on. Also, the lightness of the dome, which I guess that's what it is, seems distracting to me and out of place. Really good picture though.
