Matt, nicely done. Very dramatic. Did you use a filter on the camera, or was the start contrast created in post-processing?

Mike, I love it too. The colour palette is wonderful and the composition is superb, IMO. And lighting. And contrast rendition. Etc.

Gorgeous b&w! How did you create this... in camera or in post processing. And if post, what software did you use? Thanks.

Thanks, Jamie.
I imported my files into Lightroom and did the B&W conversion in SilverFX. Back in Lightroom, I did minimal touch ups with the exposure adjustment brush. In my experience, it seems as though I need to boost the blacks/increase curves to make the contrast pop from the Fuji Raw files -- more than I usually need to with the files from my Canon. However, the Fuji has greater dynamic range, which may factor into things.

I find the same, regarding contrast adjustment. But, as you say, the Fuji files don't seem to mind the adjustment. 
Thanks, Jamie.
