My two cents is that you are missing shadow detail in all but the "Wedding Window" shot, but if you are developing to that look then your are the artist. If it is unintentional then try working for more midtones and shadows. Usually accomplished by increasing exposure and decreasing development, using a higher dilution in your developer and extending the time to compensate, changing developers to one a little less energetic, or possibly printing with a softer grade paper. There have been many discussions on developing etc. in the archives. Again, if you are trying for the gritty look then please ignore the above as the foundation of these images is quite good.
