Can you believe that I forgot that I had already asked this question here? I didn't understand your process, anyway, LOL!

Thanks Guest, Shu and Nugar.

Nugar, I am using a gradient map to convert to B&W. I selected black and white and created a mid point of a new color. The new color is 666666. Then make adjustments to the settings to make it lighter or darker.

The other picture I did not use the mid point 666666 color but used a photo filter of sepia at 50%. I also made adjustments to the saturation to get the desired look.

The glasses pictrure I did the same but used a dark blue photo filter.

I hope that helps. theFly

Lee, what technique are you using for B&W? Your pics look really great.
