What's Ahead?

Cobblestone streets are fun to photograph. There actually is a walker in the distance but only the faintest shadows are visible unless viewed on black a little larger. Wroclaw, Poland's winding streets, wet or dry, create many photo opportunities and practice for street photography.
Processed in Silver Efex for b&w. Thanks for your comments, as always!

This is really a beautiful chiaroscuro street shot, Taffy. I don't know how much control you have in Silver Efex, but I do think that the two people could have stood out a bit more. But I love it anyway!
