I keep on working with photographs from my archives to convert them to b&w. To those new to my b&w posts I add a little bit of warmth to the images to simulate my favorite b&w printing paper, Agfa fiber base.
Notice that those images with great contrast between bright and dark areas lend themselves to better conversions. If not familiar with b&w filters they change their complimentary colors and with digital it is as easy as experimenting. There are excellent softwares to edit conversions and Topaz along with Nik make excellent softwares.

Photoshop and, I figure Photoshop Elements have channels and conversions found in Image>Adjust>Black and White to use filters or presets so we have plenty of sofwares out there to make conversions. I also use Affinity Photo which works pretty similar to Photoshop
Enjoy.

You have done some very nice work there! A question, if I may -- Do you ever miss doing chemical B&W?
