RE: [Digital BW] Convert color to BW techniques

2004-12-14 by Jake Hellbach

John,
Try http://www.thelightsrightstudio.com/DigitalDarkroom/PhotoshopTools/TLRB&WConversion.htm

I use his b/w action all the time. Works great and you still have control of the final look after the
action runs.
The best is the he incorporates conversions that simulate the use of b/w filters that you would have used
on the camera.

  I have raised my knowlege of converting color to BW sufficiently to
  realize that I don't know anything!

  Is the best route to immerse myself in techniques such as those
  presented by Russell Brown, or are there truly good tools/software
  that I should investigate as well?  I am interested in fine art
  landscape images primarily.
