This is one of the older stucco buildings at the beautiful Greenwood Gardens in New Jersey. Although captured in color, I much prefer this monochrome version which was my plan when I saw this building. Suggestions are welcomed.

Nice!! I like the pattern of the roofs and the "spot lights" on the side of the building.
During the late fall/winter/early spring I like to visit our local botanical garden to look for things/scenes that will look best in B&W.

Beautifully done, Mark. Great composition and presentation. Love that you caught it with the dappled sunlight on the facade.

Thanks. As soon as I saw how the light was playing on the building I knew I had to convert it to B&W. It was a very bright cloudless sky, but the area where I captured the image was covered by a dense canopy of tree branches which cut off most of that brilliant light and cast eveything into shadow. But I still have a nagging feeling that I could have done better.

Later today I think I'll play around a bit more with the channel mixer and will post the results of that if I think it's an improvement.
