Photoshop Actions: Black & White

Photoshop Actions to Turn Your Photos into awesome Black & Whites with one click!

I've designed these Photoshop Actions to quickly turn any photo into a corrected black & white photo instantly. Included in this package are 10 additional actions, for free, from my Basic Actions Collection for landscapes.

Included in this package are 10 Photoshop Actions to create awesome black & whites: B&W: Selective: Blues, B&W: Selective: Reds, B&W: Selective: Yellows, B&W: Simple, B&W: Simple+, B&W: Recover Shadows, B&W: Recover Highlights, B&W: Contrast, B&W: Detail, B&W: Flat.

As a bonus, you get my 10 Basic Actions for free! Included in my Basics actions are: Extreme Details, Starting Point, Starting Point Extreme, Contrast+, Contrast-,  Exposure+, Exposure-, Clear Day Brighten, Recover Highlights, Recover Shadows.

I've found the Camera Raw engine inside of Photoshop to be one of the best and most robust way to edit photos, so I've designed most of my actions around this method.

These actions are meant to: 

1. Help you quickly adjust your photos in Photoshop

2. Non-destructively edit your photo.

3. Allow you to mix and match looks to get something that looks great and enhances the message of your photograph.

4. Help train you on Photoshop

5. Give you a great starting point from where you can fine tune using Photoshop.

I've also implemented a way to retain the settings used in the Camera Raw alterations made during the running of the action so you can refer to them for learning or tweaking. How to do this and how to install and use is explained in the included ReadMes file with the course.
