>>I noticed this critisicm a lot.And would like to ask why the lack of black
and white is so important.
.........However the overall contrast is very limited but i like it
allthough
it is not very dramatic.
Maybe you have a reference for me wher i could read up on theory regarding
this subject?<<

You've hit the nail on the head - it's not very dramatic. I think street
pictures of this kind need a bit of drama to them.  A rash of mid tones is
fine in a soft portrait or a foggy landscape.

I can't offer you a reference I'm afraid as all this stuff is personal
preference after all.
