I like how you captured the clouds they look so soft. your exposure was very nice as well. I think what this picture lacks though is turning it into proper black and white. there is a special technique I learned do this in photoshop, you should try it next time here goes

turn your photo into lab colors under the adjustments menu.
then go to your channels (should be where your layers are one of the tabs on there is channels) then you remove A and B by throwing them in the trash. from there you throw alpha i think to the garbage as well.
then you convert it to gray scale and then to RGB and simply play with your contrast/brightness..there you go!
