'Twas an overcast day and the contrast between clouds and sky was minimal. You're right about changing position, lens, whatever. I really didn't do much with the image - just plopped it into PS, adjusted sepia, minimal spotting and some local sharpening. Wanted it for my wallpaper. Anyway, glad you enjoyed it. Leica M3, 50mm 'cron, TX.
BTW, this was taken the day of 9/11, and just a while before we'd been stunned by events that we saw unfold on TV. I'm sure neither of us were functioning fully.
