kThey're both good, but the b/w is too dark... Brighten it up a bit and I think it just might be the best of the two...

Hold on now. How far apart in days are the first two taken?
Like the BW.

Looks like lots of PP on the B&W. Propane tank gone, wire gone, trash gone, blue tarp gone, etc. The B&W is better IMHO and the color one seems to be OOF.

Prefer the b&w but think a touch more contrast and a little lightening would make it stand out.
Like the broken wheel, have you tried converting that to monochrome and adding a bit of contrast?
Thanks for sharing. Jim

The B&W for me , a wee bit dodge and burn would highlight the building, nice shot

I like the B&W. The color pic is OK but I don't care for the blue tarp and propane tank in the picture. That is not a demerit on the picture itself; I just like the scrubbed version better.
As for #3--Very nicely titled. Good shot.

the black and white is superior. You get a real sense of texture of the bricks, you got rid of the junk that was a distraction. does not need to be lightened, the darkness adds to th emood. With b/w. I personally like heavy contrast. It is just a look thatt works for me. Sepia tone or using an old photo or vintage photo filter would give it a nostalgic look. Not a vignetting fan, but this photo could benefit from it if you are going for a historical look
