The blown highlights take away from what could be a nice rhtyhmic effect.

Nice perspective and black and white. Because of the B&W, it feels like an old timey grocery store. I like it.

7 - well balanced, strong composition, I would have preferred it if you could have captured a bit more tonal range as the highlights at the top left are blown but that is just me (and you may have done this deliberately anyway)
