Hi Gianfranco,
The "Birmingham Gentleman" pic was a straight grayscale conversion. But
following conversion I applied curve corrections to produce the desired
grayscale values. I had some help from a professional retoucher. She
was working with me on another project and became interested in this
photo. . She generally eschews the channel miser and does straight
conversions with tweaks performed afterwards.

Fabulous work. You the man!
Thanks very much, Paul!!
BTW, your portrait of the gentleman (

beautiful.
I'm always amazed when I see a B&W conversion from digital of
this high quality. How did you process it?
Ciao,
Gianfranco
