I like the colors, and the composition in your third capture. You did a very good capture of urban decay. Thanks for sharing.

I've seen that statue of Andrew Jackson (in person) probably 100 times, but never like that. Nice shot.

I love the clouds in the Andrew Jackson Statue shot. I like that it is in b&w

Thanks, there are so many colors in NO, so it's hard to keep to BW, which I prefer.

Thank BMack, It's actually a HDR photo that I turned into BW so that I could get as much of the HiDef I could out of it without going to far over the top. Appreciate the f/b....

Really nice work on the processing of the statue. But maybe watch your backgrounds a little more? Thhe statue is being pierced by a steeple while your first guy has a fire hydrant growing on his head.
