    Black & White method...

    In another thread someone mentioned that some ways of converting a digital color to black and white are better than others. Here are the four ways that I know of in Elements 6. Please comment on the differences, your preferences and why. - TF

    EDIT: If you feel that you could better demonstrate with the original file and do your own conversion, I would be glad to send it to you. - TF

    1- Desaturation
    2- Remove Color
    3- Grayscale
    4- Convert to BW, Default Settings
    5- Convert to BW, My Settings?????

    I am no better than you. I critique to teach myself to see.

    Feel free to edit my photos or do anything else that will help me learn.
