This is one of a myriad of doorways in the historic section of Savannah. In the conversion to B & W, it looked ominous. I added a coffee tint to warm it a bit and it looked more ominous! I think Batman lives here!

Cool perspective and like the B&W choice. It seems a bit tilted to the right? Lens distortion or maybe a rotation?

I see the distortion, too, but it almost adds to the feel. Lots of lines and angles in this, and the toning works great here. I just don't like that triangle of sky in the urc.

Vertical correction is just slightly off, causing a slant to the right. The small triangle of sky is included (and the vertical correction off) because I wanted to include the top corner of the porch roof. I should have backed off and zoomed up to about 20 mm, dealing with the lesser distortion. Hard to tell in advance. Here is the correction.

I think the correction is a big improvement. You still have a fine perspective, but the building looks right now.
