Not much to add, except you did an incredible job of capturing the proportions of the monument. I love this shot.

Wonderful contrasts! Even though I see people in the photo, this still has a very desolate feel to it....

I think B&W arch. shots are hard to pull off, kinda a do or die, but this one came out nicely. The tones are great!

now that's a familiar view!!! Although, I never thought about doing it in black and white, looks much more majestic! Love the clouds in the background, great capture!

Beautiful, Milady!
That cloudy day ended up great to take such b&w captures
The clouds add some mystique or abandoned look to the monuments...

I've always liked the Jefferson Memorial... mostly because it's kind of out of the way which makes it nicer to visit so you're not inundated with all those wacko tourists as with other memorials Especially in the evening... very cool to see at sunset! The B&W really compliments the architecture.
