This reminds me most appropriately of one Lt Columbo part - that titled "by Dawn's Early Light". With Patrick McGoohan.
Very good job, agent:)

John, I was curious for some aspects of your posting, so I've searched on the net and have read this: "Located in the southeast tower of Ohio Stadium, the Victory Bell is rung after every Ohio State victory. It was a gift of the classes of 1943, 1944 and 1945. Resting 150-feet up in the southeast tower, members of Alpha Phi Omega ring the bell after victories, a tradition that began after OSU beat California Oct. 2, 1954. On a calm day, it is said the bell can be heard five miles away. The bell weighs 2,420 pounds and cost $2,535 to install."

Think this places your fine image in a better perspective mate!

Very good shot.

Regards, Cornelius.

A nice angle in the photo. Some perspective correction and cropping the image tighter to the bell tower so it's centered in the photo wouldn't hurt. The shadows around the bell could be selectively lightened or maybe fiddle around with the white levels.
