    David,
    I couldn't agree with you more. I don't normally do this, but I'm glad I hijacked this thread. This has got to be the best thread I've read here at DGrin in the past year!clap.gif

    Hey dont worry you didnt Hijack it! the thread is about B&W conversions and there has been some great stuff so far.

    Extra double secret technique involves very deep knowledge of computational photography.

    Should I reveal it, or does someone want to guess first?
    If not now, when?

    This one is really nice and has quite a bit of "pop". I'm going to guess that all you did was desaturate (although if this is the answer, I may hang myself!!!:hang )

    Well, I'm glad to say that wasn't it. Still, all the information you need is right here in this thread (big clue). Anyone else want to guess?

    Yes, I layered Andy's on top of mine at 50% opacity. It's a trick I've seen Dan Margulis do often when each of two versions has desirable properties. Amazing how well it worked this time.
