Hi Alan, very nice B&W conversion. I am not sure about the expanse of driveway in the foreground. just as a suggestion, try cropping to just into the shadow on the left. The shadow will then balance the bush on the right and the horizon will be off the centre of the frame. What do you think?

Cheers Rex

Alan, great bw here mate. love the sky.
Maybe a more panoramic crop would work better based on what Rex said? i wouldnt want to lose any from the sides as i like the expanse it provides. great contrast though!!
