black and white conversions

[JoShAdKa4]

Hi all, just wondering which b&w conversion works best for these:
I personally like the 2nd version of each of these. In the first photo I used channel mixer set at R-70%, G-30%, B-5% with constant -5 (I think). On the 2nd version I used channel mixer again but had the settings at R-14%, G-84%, B-23% with the constant set at -13 to darken just a tad bit more.

I'm still not sure how to add more than 2 photo's at a time so here are the next two. Thanks to all who look and care to comment.

2nd on both

Second on both, but maybe toned down just a tad in the first. The contrast is making her face look just a little blotchy.

Thanks for the comments, I did make the adjustments to the first photo, her skin tone just did't seem right with those settings. I guess these settings are a good start, but each photo may have to be tweeked just a bit to get them just right.

I like #2 on both of them... :)

I actually like the first on both, but I like older generic black and whites.. but they are both great conversions.
