Hi Scott,

Thank very much for your kind comment, on both of my recent postings.  
For processing I don't do nathing special. I shot always in DNG and  
with IR/UV filter, I use old lenses, I think that these ones gives a  
different "glamour" or contrast, and are cheaper than the the actual  
ones. I process all my pictures in Capture One Pro following the usual  
steps, applyng color corrections, light, contast etc.. customized up  
to my personnal taste.

Up this point the process us the same for color and B&W, I always  
convert the color picture to B&W in Silver Efex Pro 2, I still  
remember a very good advice gave me my friend Geoff when I've started  
digital, the first thing to have a good B&W picture is have a good one  
in color. Sometimes I take a look in Capture One converted to B&W,  
just neutral, to see how look the highlights and shadows in B&W and do  
small corrections. I export the picture in Tiff, sometimes I correct  
the color in Photoshop Elements 6, and after I apply Silver Efex Pro,  
at the en of the process I adjust Levels with PS, sometimes also, some  
dodge and burn, PS has certain advanatges over C1, and C1 has certain  
advantages over PS.

I hope this helps...

Cheers
Lluis
