This is an impressive series! Downloading is a must on these. I really love all the lush foliage surrounding the delapidated barn in the first shot. The second shot is excellent also. The composition is very inviting and the mist provides atmosphere. B&W was a good choice on these and they are well done. The third shot is very striking with the star trails and the city lights.
All in all, you are off to a great start here and I look forward to seeing more of your work.

Though #3 is breathtaking, my favorite is #1. Your b&w contains a lot of detail and textures and the composition offers a bit of mystery and interest in the what and why of the subject. Very, very appealing to me.
I like the fog in #2 though I'm not as drawn to the composition. This is totally personal opinion but a few steps closer, removing the tree and dirt on right as well as the first section of rail on left, would be stronger IMO. Make us more part of the experience than viewing from a distance.
This image might be tilted slightly. Could be illusion, but when I straightened two degrees, it all lined up better

I have no favorite. These are three very different images and all three are winners. Keep them coming.

All 3 are very fine photos. In #3, was there an airport off to the right in the frame? I am curious as to what is causing the vertical and diagonal light trails on that side of your frame.
