I like that a lot! My brother is a professional photographer, so I get a chance to see really good photography quite a bit - and I must say - that's an awesome photo with great composition!
Very, very cool photo! Love it, you had everything come together perfectly.
I don't have the patience or time for such creativity anymore, a quick snapshot now and again is all I get. I used to love doing things like that though; buildings (churches mostly), barns and rusted 'stuff' in B&W was so fun.
