Really nice pics, but I find there's way too much contrast on the B&W conversions.

The 3rd image is an excellent composition but I find it difficult to look at. By adding the contrast for "punch", what you also do is push the micro contrast, so effectively there is now a black line underlining and emphasising all the small patterns throughout the image. To me this now swamps the main composition and I find myself struggling to overcome this confusion when I view it. Back off the contrast a touch and let the main compositional lines be the focus. Shadows look good as cool and soft as it is a good contrast to the harsh sunlit areas.

Number 8 is an excellent indoor shot full of rich deep tones and detail, but unfortunately blocked in the shadows by too much contrast. Indoor light is soft, not harsh, open the shadows a little and reveal all those rich tones up the left side and the soft cool light of the interior.
