B&W urban pics always intrigue me in an emotional way. These are well done.

In a few of them, like "In Boulcott Street" and "In Cuba Mall (day of Christchurch earthquake), ii", I wonder if you could lighten up the dark shadowy areas in the background to bring out more details and give the overall image more depth.

Great stuff - quite a bit to digest. 8, 13 and 14 are truly special to my eye. Great job.
