Since Don's is the first I have come across this week, his will be the one I critique. Please take these comments in good humor. The first image may have been better if you could see her face. The out of focus in the mirror looks pretty cool. The second could be a little closer. In a little closer, the top of the picture would end near the pallets of food and not include the bright light sources above them. The third one I would crop just above the first cafe sign. There is too much empty space above the building. The fourth is just too cluttered. I would think again if you really need 1600 asa film for these types of images. The grain is quite obvious and you may be losing a range of tones that you would capture on slower film.
