Discovering

I've been working on my black & white photography, tweaking contrast and value to get a "classic" b&w look, getting rid of the bluish tint to the grays and the grayish "mist" that seem to plague my b&w shots. This time I shot in color and processed for b&w in Photoshop's channel mixer function, and then further processing in the curves function. I'm pleased with the results. Here's what worked the best.
