Greetings from the Critique Club...
First of all, I think it's important that you include your camera settings when requesting a critique. That information is beneficial to me when offering you suggestions on how to improve your work :)
I think this is an excellent subject for a black and white photo. I also applaud the camera tilt. I do that quite frequently myself to create imbalance and added dynamics. This particular subject seems to have a lot of smaller composition opportunities within the field of view you have presented here as well.
Per your notes, I believe you were going for a dark sky effect, and it seems to have worked out to some degree, but I believe the rest of the image may be slighly underexposed by the methods you chose to achieve that effect. The highlights are almost there, but not quite. You may be able to improve this effect by using a polarizer. The polarizer will darken the sky without much loss on the existing highlights in the scene... |

Great subject for this post-processing challenge. I do like the angle you've chosen, I would've kept her wing matching the right border though, I am just to symmetrical probably. |

Wow. EXCELLENT angle. The clouds add so much to this too, the way they seem swept in the direction of the wings. Powerful image here, good job. |

Nice choice of black and white! It gives me a creepy graveyard feeling. |
