I like the angle and shadows of this. Would like to see a little more contrast in the black and white

Nice crisp shot. Like the shadows on the road. Good choice of B&W - emphasizes the play of light and shadow. Like the angle.

A more interesting composition than many. Some odd noise along the shop-front, almost like you've lightened that area. Like the use of the tree shadow in foreground.

The shadow of the tree is fantastic...I love when this happens don't you? This is a very nice picture, the choice of B&W is perfect, there seems to be a bit of "noise" in the sky but it really doesn't bother me...maybe from compression?

The shadows created by the tree branches makes this shot. Good composition though a little bit grainy on my monitor. Good luck! 6

I almost shot this same building for this challenge. What are the chances of that happening? Right behind you is where I shot my first entry for DPChallenge. Great idea, great shadows and good choice for Black/White. 7
