Just converted to greyscale and processed using various adjustment layers. Quite easy, actually.

These are outstanding, whatever you did. They look much like ink drawings done by an accomplished artist.

Wonderful!! You have a great eye for composition and I like the use of formats/cropping. Would you care to share some of your post-processing- after greyscale, what adjustments do you find work best for these types of shots (levels, constrast/brightness or something else)?
