I like a lot! :mrgreen:

The mood is certainly set by the b&w. Has a very medieval feel to it.

I love B & W and this image is a very nice example. I visited Gent many many years ago.

This is a superb photograph that has the right balance of light/dark, with superb curves and a mystery that is timeless.

Welcome Jeroen from Gent (or for the English - Ghent)

the mood of the shot is excellent, it's very mysterious.
the shadows and tone give it a real dimension

I guess you know the guidlines of composition, since i see some elements lining up in the corners, well done

maybe experiment with depth of field in a high contrast scene see if that adds more depth to the image

please post more images of your wonderful Gent or Belgique
I was there it's a very beautiful and charming place.

Merci.

Jeroen - One of the finest first images I've seen posted.

You might consider just a little use of the Shadow/Highlight control in Photoshop CS to add just a little more in the shadow areas to make it even more involving, while leaving the highlight sliders set for no change.

Excellent shot under difficult lighting.

Cheers, SoCal Steve
