For the first shot, was the corridor light that yellowish?
2nd one is good, but i think it can be better if it is taken when the sky color is more dramatic.
I know that is the difficult part because you may need to visit many trips to get the opportunity.
Prefer to color version over the bw.
I like the last too.

Did you print them?

#1 may be yellow on the right, blue on the right, but these colours complement each other. well done.

and all are sharp, from near to far, also well done...

Yes, I used cloudy WB so the corridor looked yellowish. Also did some colour saturation as well.

You should have waited till the skies got darker... then the scenery would give more punch  Cheesy

Yes, I usually print 8x12s or 10x15s for my clients. Between the 4 pictures, I've sold over 40 prints.

Kel, it means that the sky is too dark and hence the buildings will appear too dark and hence details of the building wall or windows and etc will be gone.  Same for an over exposure shot, a white shirt if over expose will lose details of the texture on the clothing.
