Dark, dank and dismal

just a thought.... but these seemed to be screaming for a black and white conversion......

Glad you like it Mark! Thanks for commenting!
Yes Saravrose, I had thought about converting them to B&W although is is something I usually don't do. I think the edited versions would look better that way too.

Thanks for getting back to me David. I guess I will give it another try. I will have to start from scratch again on it. You created a monster suggesting I use the contrast masking and I did not know how to use the gardient layer until now. I want to do it on all of them now. Here is one I did this afternoon. I also just figured out how to frame.
