I examine a few different methods of converting this image and finally arrive at the following version using a unique “channels-as-layers” approach:
This B&W version uses multiple layers of the individual channels from the original color.
Next, I look at the following image of wind eroded sandstone rock:
The Wave at Coyote Buttes
I use a similar method of conversion with multiple layers of channels plus a curve to create a B&W version and then I show how to do a split-tone effect, resulting in this version:
This very dramatic & stylized version shows a cool-warm split tone effect.
