Telephone

This picture was converted from black to white using layers/hue and saturation. i clicked layers>new adjustment layer>hue/saturation>ok. Another window opened up after so i could change the saturation to -100. This made the image go to black and white. Then to adjust it to make it look better i reopened the layer drop down menu>new adjustment layer>hue/saturation>mode(changed the mode to colour)>ok. Then clicked ok again on the hue/saturation window. i then double clicked the hue/saturation layer 1 so i can start making the picture look better. Once the window opened, i changed master to red, blue then green adjusting each of them to make them look better then clicked ok. i then merged the layers together so i could save the picture as a jpg.

This is the 2nd conversion method. i clicked layer>new adjustment layer>channel mixer>ok. Once the window opened i selected monochrome, this made the image got black and white. i then changed red to 70% green, to 30% and blue to 20%. i added hue/saturation layer and clicked ok. i then moved the hue/saturation layer down so it was 2nd, double clicked it then changed the saturation so that it looked better. To save it i merged the layers to make it a jpg.

Out of both conversion methods i prefer the channel mixer method. This gave the image more of a contrast when i changed it from colour to black and white.
