I know that table! (last pic)

Anyway I like the composition on most of these, but if you are open to ciritque heres my two cents.

For the BW images if you are not printing them yourself, you could use PS to up the contrast (dry darkroom is perfectly acceptable in my books), other wise use a magenta filter or higher contrast paper if you are dark rooming it. As they currently stand they are fairly flat contrast wise.

Cheers.

I know the black and white is a little bland but if I increase the contrast then the clouds get blown out to white and the darker areas fill in, for example. I did adjust the mid tones through the levels pallet (Photoshop) after your comment though. I must have missed adj. these photos as I have most of the rest.

Well sometimes its effective to use masking to 'burn' in various areas of the photo that require more exposure, This is aprticularily effective for those trouble spots like skies. :)
