Only adjustments is desaturate to B/W. Orginally a sunset pic, but when i converted to B/W, i like the contrast i saw between the Dark bars of the window and the light sky in the background.

I can't see much detail - probably due to my monitor. I love the story here - solitude, longing for something. Bumping it up to 10. I really like the composition. Very moody.

Interesting lines in this shot but I can see no shadow detail at all on my monitor. Perhaps you wanted the total silhouette but I think there is too much black and a tighter crop would have benefited the shot.

little underexposed

There is far too much black space here, It'd be better to have more foreground exposed or crop it to just the window/have zoomed in before.

This image is seriously missing shades. Composition is very original, the wires wouldn't bother too much but extra diagonal component on right is probably too much. The sun is partially blocked which is weird. Can't say I don't like the idea, but this execution isn't succesful to my eyes.

I like it. Don't know why, but I do. Gives me a lonely feeling. Like looking out my window on another dateless Friday evening. I just wish I had your view. It's also a bit dark in the foreground. But this is different that most fare I see on here. (6)

Nice shot! You might try cropping a little closer from the bottom, as a white speck or two down there is slightly distracting. 8

This photo is a bit too dark and there is nothing in the scenery to draw my eye into the picture.

3/4s of this photograph is too dark for me to see any detail. Nice view of the water.
