Very nice images from the City of Light (gathering). The B&W is also appropriate for these shots.

Some of the very best B&W exposures I've seen in a long time. Excellent! The contrast is spot on.

Third and fourth ones are my favorites. Good composition in the third one with the right amount of sky&church.

Yes, #2 and #3 are the Orléans Cathedral, most famously associated with Joan of Arc.
