Paul,

I'm not much of a B&W photographer myself, but I'd say these look pretty good. #4 seems to have blown a few spots, but for the most part these seem to fill out the tonal range pretty well.

B/W is still something I struggle with myself, but to pick from these I like Grizzley Peak the best.

I also like Grizzley Peak. Are these digital images that have been converted, or were these shot on b&w film or originally shot b&w digital? On my monitor #3 seems to have some color in it.

The last one definitely stands out for me.

Rodney: They are all digital, the scenes themselves were pretty much monochrome in nature, the only color you would have been able to get out of them was a blue sky in a couple of the shots, but I did shoot them in color than converted them to straight B&W afterwards
