maplewood municipal building

Photo of the Day: Maplewood after the rain

I love this building in my hometown of Maplewood, NJ. I'd been meaning to get out there and photograph some of the sights in this town but something was always getting in my way. Heck I'd managed to get to New Zealand but couldn't seem to photograph the town where I live.

I got out my Nikor 14-24mm lens for this bad boy. I also played with this image quite a bit in Lightroom before dropping it into Silver Effex Pro for some dramatic black and white. The blue sky was gorgeous but I just felt like this needed some black and white action. What do you think?
