Thanks, Paul. I did some B&W conversions of this pic back in January of 2004, and while they received some good comments, I wasn't as happy with them as could be. A lot has been learned since then. This latest iteration was a result of using The Imaging Factory Convert to B&W plug-in. Testing the plug-in was the reason for dredging up the old pic. Other techniques, such as the double Hue/Sat technique of which I'm quite fond) have provided better results than the earlier conversions as well. Practice, practice, practice <LOL>
