I've been playing around with some black and white portrait shots and noticed that by turning the saturation right down or greyscaling the image, it doesn't actually look black and white, it looks more a blueish tinged b&w. With the blue channel turned down a bit it looks more of a 'classic' black and white, at least to my eyes. Is this maybe down to my screen? Or am I just imagining black and white a certain way, maybe associating it with 'old' and expecting a certain colour cast due to ageing?
Is converting an image to black and white as simple as desaturating it (colourwise I mean)?
