Agreed with Eubeen, B&W shots suppose to be a bit darker than usual. I really like the perspective and the composition. One more thing that, you could adjust the contrast a little. Anyway, this is a good photography. Good job!
I don’t think that you need to darken this shot at all I believe if the scene is bright then so should the photo be bright.
It has not been that long ago that I would go and buy a roll of 126 film for my old brownie and look for the brightest light I could find so I would not have to pay for those darn flash bulbs.
Oh rats now everybody knows how old I am.
I do agree that you did a great job with the composition and perspective.
Well done
