thank you for your opinion. Actually I haven't realized that I reversed reality, I just wanted way more contrasty look. :-) The result looks approximately the way I've envisioned it (at least on my display, which is fairly low on contrast). But as I wrote in an other message in this thread, I was just playing with the picture and it took about 3 minutes to create the B&W version so I am aware it's far from perfect...
