WOW! The first shot is absolutely lovely in B&W. The second shot is also very nice. The third photo is also interesting, especially if one looks at it for a bit. The fourth photo is a cull-class shot in my opinion.
WHat makes a god B&W shot? Some of the elements of design that really help B&W images might be considered line, shape,mass, texture, value, repetition, and variation.
Line,shape,mass,texture,and value are six areas where successful B&W photos often have strengths. Value, as in tonal values, not intrinsic value or some other definition of value.
Your first sample, of the three glass spheres is almost ENTIRELY about lines, shape, mass, texture, repetition, and different tonal values. If we throw in variation, in the way that you cropped off the two spheres at the top and lower right corners of the competition, we can see that your strongest B&W photo uses seven elements and principles of design.
I really like the first shot!
