I posted some shots from this party a couple of weeks ago. I went back and looked again and thought this would be an OK B&W.

regards,

Gary

I use the channel mixer in Photoshop. I select the monocchrome box. I start out with setting the red in the low 50's, green in the teens and 40 or so for the blue. Sometimes after doing that I play with brightness and contrast. The shot was taken in very bright sunlight.

Gary

There wasn't much more to it. I did do a layer fill to get rid of the white - I thought it was too distracting. The B&W could use a little more cleanup -it was done very quickly this AM.
