I really like this. It is a very strong image. Like the manipulation too (presumably the sky).

Selective colouring can still be effective when applied well, and I think this is a good example.

I see a strong message here given the current climate. The menacing sky signals the dark times hanging over London, while Big Ben and the bold red tube symbol stand up defiantly against it.

Good work.

Very dramatic image - the selective colouring works very well here.

I think this is an excellent dramatic shot. Great symbolism, as Steve has already pointed out. You should offer this to newspapers, I'm sure they'd be very interested.

Very dramatic. Agree with the comments about the symbolism. The effect of the sky really brings out the red of the sign. Well seen. Stuart.

Caught my eye for sure! Good use of selective toning, and the angle/composition is fab!

Excellent! Particularly like the reflective red on the sign, a good juxta-p to the grainy B&W of BB.

I took a photo of this veiw just a couple of weeks ago but there was an over-hanging canopy that I couldnt avoid. So well done to you for getting into a much better position than me. Great treatment too!

This is a fine shot and an unusual perspective on Big Ben. Nice to see something different. A very good example of selective colouring. Well done. CLIK.
