Street photography??? Isn't this roof photography, ha!? Your title adds to this image and sets the mood. Excellent composition, and placement of the "guardians". The building is graphically bold. The B&W was a good choice as color probably would not have carried the image. I find the exposure and tonal range dark, lacking detail. This may have been a function of setting your ISO too low, like ISO 100. Yet, if you look at the cloudy sky and lower light, maybe an ISO of around ISO 400 would have served better??? You can go into Levels and adjust the middle tonal range and inject more light and detail, and then perhaps add slight Contrast as well. Nice shot! > TED

Thanks for your critique Ted, this is really helpful. I agree, too much dark, I will fix this.
