I’ve tried HDR, night shots, etc. For this shot, I went wide, trying to capture more context, in this case the railroad cars and railroad tracks. The original image was in color, but I particularly liked the look of the sky when I converted the image to black and white.

Here is the original color image:

    I grew up there, it's a great photo that captures the eery lore of the clock tower. Lots of ghosts around there.
