I have created several black and white tutorials in the past.  Two of my favorite are the written tutorial and the video tutorial.  While I could leave it with just those two, I am a fan of continuous improvement and finding a better more efficient way to do everything, enter Camera Raw from stage right!

A few weeks ago I showed you how to make a Creative Cross Process effect in Camera Raw.  Today is all about how to use Camera Raw creatively to create stunning black and white images.  It is very similar to using the Black and White Adjustment Layer in Photoshop.  However, it is much more powerful!
