Truly. I miss the shadow detail even if there's a hint of that.

Now that is a nice one. The skeletons of old buildings or perhaps the building blocks of new ones? Anyway, this image gives me a despondent feeling, so I'm guessing you want to portray decay. It seems it's taken at a shorefront site, if that is sand in the foreground. If I have any problem with this it's that it's took dark at the feet of the buildings. This works nicely in B/W. (5)

Cool composition, fits the rule of thirds pretty well. Nice tones - gray to dark gray, to stark black and white, to white.

I think that the bottom half of the shot is absolutely superb. But the blown out sky really makes the image suffer. Cropping it down as low as you could would have improved the image tremendously.

IMO the contrast is too high and the sky is blown out. B&W doesn't mean litterally black and white. Think gray scale.
