I welcome input. Critique please. Especially the chair at the coffeehouse. I think I took 30 photos there; it was very difficult to get good composition.

I'm a fan of the 3rd image. All those lines!!! And your choice of monochrome is very complimentary to the subject. The chair at the coffee house has potential but the shadows are distracting to me.
I agree, I really love the third one, incredible. But the coffee house chair(s), to me there is something about the angle, I like the shot, but something is off and I'm not sure if I could have taken a different shot, so, who am I to say? If you like it then that is all that matters. But as stated above the shadows are distracting.
I wish I could post all the coffeehouse chair photos. I came out into bright sunshine and was astounded at the bright light, multiple black tables and chairs in disarray, no sitters (one of my favorites...empty chairs) and these awesome shadows and cracks in the sidewalk under the tables. I was overwhelmed with the lines/patterns/sharp chairs against soft table shadows. Took a ton of shots but none had good composition. Back then, I didn't edit...I should try it. Will post more examples.
nice really loved the first and third one... Great job!
Good composing eye! You are a natural.
Love the last pic... In the first I believe it's missing something but still a nice shot.
Chair photo...I think it would be a fine photo with the chair on the right gone, a little more of the table and/or the chair on the left just a little bit more in, but about the same angle. :-)
Edit to add:
The top of the curve of the chair equal with the curve of the table.
The last one is excellent and very engaging. There is a lot to look at and it is all captured beautifully.
The chair curves comment is interesting. Thanks for the specifics.
