Trapped Photons

I am experimenting a bit with converting my photos to black and white lately and chose this one for the nice contrast. However, I am still at odds with the dynamic range of my camera. If you look close, you will notice that some of the highlights are blown out, something that is much more severe in digital photography compared to film. Makes me wonder if I should try shooting a few rolls of b&w film.

The John Hancock Tower in Boston with its blueish tinted glass windows - giving only little contrast to the sky on a bright early spring day.
