M:s House LW version

I wanted to increase the feeling of deserted loneliness! Increased the brightness, contrast and black point and increased blue and green and decreased red on the adjustment sliders. Sharpened and a little bit of cropping!

Oh, you did good on this. What a great conversion. Really changes the mood.

It does look spooky and desolate. Makes the 8 year old in me wonder what's going to wander out of that tall grass.

Perfect solution, Lennart. Your choice of b&w is just right. You
also did a very nice job with the sharpening without it showing.

Lennart, You achieved a very spooky and lonely feel. Your black and white conversion is skillfully done.

This is very cleverly and skillfully done Lennart.
You have achieved your intended feeling of isolation and desolation remarkably well.
