Thanks Brian! Truthfully, part of the reason I'm doing this challenge is to learn how to do better b&w conversions. This one was actually simpler than most: I increased brightness and contrast and then hit the magic "Grayscale" button in Lightroom - that's it! I've also found some good things from PhotoTune software. An upcoming attempt will be to use gradients in photoshop, and I don't have any idea at this point how to do that, but exploring is part of the fun.
