Hi Agni,
This image has a graphic look to it....all the straight lines and the patterns made in the brickwork help to create that result. The B&W works well as it emphasises shapes and form, rather than highlighting anything of dominating colour. My only criticism is that you must ensure that you get the horizons straight, it it is angled quite a bit down to the right. If you have access to Photoshop you can use the "rotate image" option to straighten.
Best regards, Grant
