Hey all looking to the forum yet again for more advice! Im really having trouble producing the black and white effects i want from my pictures in photoshop. Im getting the hang of editing in colour and am starting to produce the effects i want.
The first photo is the sort of thing i am getting (just something i snapped the other day and conerted to BNW in PP.:
Flat with no dynamic high and low lights
I'm looking of this sort of effect, blacks and whites really accentuated:

BTW - This is not my image and has only been posted for comparison
(Check gunnisal's photostream actually all his bnw results are what i'm look for!)
Is this something that is done in PP. or more reliant on light when taking the actual photo
Thanks in advance
Russ
