el jacko takes pictures every now and then

Out of the first set, I like the first best, and I dislike the last and the third. There could be improvements done on the first as I think it can be the strongest. First, the angle is not straight. That is easily remedied with PS. Second the newspaper does not seem to be in focus. If this is your intent for it to be in focus, with night shots, especially night shots, use a tripod with long exposure and take several shots to get the right exposure. I would also suggest using the largest (smallest number) aperture possible.

Now the reasons why I dislike the streetlights and the graffitti is that I feel like it lacks something. When I see it, it's not striking to me.

As for the b&w set, are these developed or negative scans? I'm never a fan of negative scans, and if you have any developed ones I would love to see them. If these are developed, I take back that statement. Usually developed photos do not have black edges since the edges are completely marked off with the metal frame. That is unless you didn't enlarge the negative enough.

Out of these I think the second has the most potential if only the building was in focus. I like movement shots.
