You will see a "black and white" option and click on it. Then click on a little gizmo about a couple of millimeters in diameter. That will activate cursor control. If now you go to, say, a portion of your picture that is green, put the cursor there, press the cursor button and move the cursor up or down. You will see that area and any other green containing area of the picture get brighter or darker as you move the curser, respectively, up or down. Using this simple technique, you could get more contrast between the leaves and the background. Hope this helps, Herb P.S. Oh. Look in, say Amazon, for Spyder Express. This is an inexpensive (about $80) device for calibrating your monitor by creating and installing a color profile for it. I have an inexpensive printer, an Epson Artisan 50 selling for about $100. The color of my prints pretty damn closely matches what I see on the monitor. Herb >Experimenting with lightroom and black and white conversions.
