2. SPLASH! As you see the car parked behind this vehicle got all wet with that "ewwy" water


3. I was kinda surprised to see that there are no cars parked in front of those houses so I thought it would be nice for a retro looking b&w picture.

4. OMG! Welcome to the 1950s

6. I wasn't sure if it's a frozen river or just snow covered solid ground but I didn't bother or dare to find out lol.

I really like number 3 and 4. I like the b/w edit, and the first photo, with the house , is one of your bests in my opinion.

HEY! Those are not Photoshop edits I actually used the in-camera b&w setting to take those pictures. Well I do admit that I had to change contrast in a couple of them because they kinda looked a lil bit overexposed.
hmmm I don't see any cars in the first picture... lol but thanks for the kind comment though

EDIT: I was kinda tempted to add some noise in #4 but decided against it.

I ment the house. xD
Oh, I have never done that before, but is it better to use the internal b&w setting?
Try to add some noise, maybe it will look good.

Well I don't really know if the in-camera b&w setting is better than doing it in PS but to me it was whole a lot easier because I only had to change the picture style on my camera to "monochrome". Your camera probably has picture style function as well which is quite useful sometimes.
hmm I may will add some noise or whatever to some of those b&w pictures later

Ok! I added some noise to a couple of those b&w pictures as you told me, mr Mads
Personally I don't really like it very much because those added noise look kinda fake and digital unlike those genuine noise created by those old films.

and this is a b&w picture made in photoshop and I used selective color to retain the color of that heart and added some noise.
