Chesapeake Boathouse in B&W

I'm a huge fan of the architecture of Chesapeake's boathouse and finish line tower as well as Devon's boathouse.  These pics were all taken at sunrise and the color versions were fun but I didn't think they were as interesting as the B&W versions.  I've not done a lot of B&W photography or conversions but it's growing on me and I'm trying to get the hang of it.

All the images below are single exposure (not HDR!). They have more halo'ing than I'd like but they're so dynamic they seem to keep your eye moving around the image figuring out where to land.  The natural curve in the darker clouds in the upper left of images 3 & 4 add a unique and complimentary twist to all the other curves found in the image.
