I have been looking at various ways to show digital images as B&W.  Many of 
the images I see on the LUG gallery come close to film images, but I have 
not been getting to that point.  This was made with my E-510 and Elmarit-R 
28/2.8 as a RAW image and converted to B&W, then sepia, in Elements 6.0.  I 
know that there are specialty converters available, but have not tried them 
as yet. If anyone has suggestions, please comment.

One local problem is the haze level and lack of blue sky for contrast.
