B&W Image:

What I did:
Removed crane
Chanel mixer convert to B&W
Added sky + blended
Dodge + Burn
Added film grain (Ilford HP5)
Added border + cropped

This is my first bit of heavy photoshop post processing, so C+C appreacited, but be gentle!

Hey gobbo, really like what you've done to the pic. Looks so much better in B+W. Only thing I can criticise on is the border, seems to detract from the photo and is a bit too busy for my liking. Good otherwise!

Correct, the clouds were my own from a seperate picture though, but the boarder and film grain they provided were used.
