1, best of the three, lines and contrats are good
2, not really sharp, and centered :-/ looks like it was taken with high iso film...idk, im not personally a fan
3, nothing seams to be in focus, and has weird texture on it. but if the book bindings were sharp i would like it.

looks like these are scanned in from film?

yea they are film.

The first one is my favorite also.

2. I went for the geometric shapes in it. I think it would of been better if the triangle was higher in the frame.

3. the bindings are in focus but it was shot at like 1/8 handheld.

#1 My Favourite. Good composition. Works well in b&w. Studying Film, Media Production we were bought up with alot of experimental and reminds me of that kind of stuff. Something different and at a perspective that is unnatural.

#2 Got alot of noise. I agree with you about the triangle needs to be higher up.

#3 Just not for me. Feels like you just kind of snapped it because it was there.

Sorry...personally, I don't care for either. I just think there's too much "junk" in the picture of the light pole. The geometric patterns would be more interesting if they were more consistent and if there had been some symmetry to the image (similar to that of the building corner image). The last is simply too noisy and OOF.

The noise of the pics has to do with the film that expired a couple 10 years ago. hahah. thanks for the comments.

Anyone else?

The triangle one is quite clever when viewed from afar. It's a shame that the visible grain in the sky gets in the way but a simple selection and surface blur will give it a digital polish.

I only like the second one. I would rotate it a little and crop it to make it perfectly symmetrical and I would remove the dark vignette. The grain vs no grain is personal preference... I would like no grain.

#2 works the best for me due to the strong, simple geometric component and contrast of dark and light. I think the grain adds character. Have you tried B&W conversion?

I agree with the others that it might benefit from a tighter crop or original framing showing more building / less sky.
