    Terrific, Dez. Were they taken in B&W mode or coverted in PP?
    Love viewing your work!

    Dez,

    Every one of these shots is spectacular. I'm having trouble making a decision on a favorite!

    As always Dez, I admire your work. I'm a big fan of black and white photography as well. B/W images are sometimes more powerful than color.

    I always liked the view of the city in B&W. It show off the texture of the building much better. Nice series of photos.
