I really like "Windows"

I like the stark contrasts in #6, but that sign at the top is just killing it...

For some off reason #6 reminds me of a famous old ulta high-contrast B&W outdoor portrait of Bill Cosby, where he's wearing frameless eyeglasses and smoking a cigar, and the contrast is just super-high. I bet you know the photo I am talking about; it ran in the TIme-Life photo series of books, and there's some other high-contrast B&W images associated with it; this photo of yours is mentally taking me back maybe close to 40 years!

Yeah I know ... I keeping flipping back and forth between cropping and not cropping. I probably, as you stated, crop the sucker. I don't know if going back 40 years is a good thing or a bad thing. lol

Loved most of it. Excellent shots. #1 to me is a winner. I am tempted to trim a bit of the bottom though. #2 and US are my other favourites. Wonderful shots.
