Ken you can change the title.go to edit picture /portfolio...This location needs to be explored more...you onto a good idea here but you need to work out some angles with this scene......this is a nice shot of a staircase going up...definitely needs to be considerable sharper.....

There's actually a pretty decent article on BW conversion on the LuminousLandscape.com page... I'm sorry I don't have the exact link, but a little snooping around should turn it up. I often just get lazy and convert to grayscale then do a levels adjustment, but using the channel mixer in monochrome mode is really the best way to control your filtration and final tones.

Ken, since I shoot digital I only shoot in color and then convert in PS6, I have found the best way is to convert to grayscale then do a manual levels adjustment. Or if your good enough (which Im not) you can convert using curves. I also dodge and burn if needed to punch up shadows and highlights. I hope this helps.. :-)

I've only worked with b&w film a few times and almost every time mine come out looking washed out as well. I don't know if it was me or the developer. Probably me, any hoo...I've changed some of my photos over to b&w in Photoshop and they've looked really great. I know our new project is to take pictures in b&w. I'm pretty sure it has to be the real thing to count, so....As for any tips from me,,I'm looking for tips all the time myself, I usually just have to comment on my personal experiences and what happened to me in hopes that I get a good tip from someone else. It probably has something to do with contrast?

I messed up on the title for this shot!! It was supposed to be Stairway but I typed in the wrong title.
