 When I shot this I did not have this challenge in mind. When I saw some of bspurgeon photos I figured this was close enough. Awesome photographer hope I did this user some justice.

Just couldn't process this photo like bspurgeon whose b/w photos are awesome.

Very pretty. Love the bokeh. I was trying to get the spot of light like that but couldn't make it work. Nice job.

Lovely smooth grain, the water drops really give a sense of closeness and intimacy.

Certainly the right topic, and in the right tonal ranges. For me, it's the composition that appears to be just slightly non-Bennish.

This feels a bit too sharp, but the composition and conversion are both nicely done.

Nicely composed lines. Love the darkness, the drop of brightness and how it evolves from shadowy, abstract shapes on the left to the concrete leafy texture bathed in beautiful light on the right side.
