Ken,

I haven't shot much pure B&W with my E-510, but have done a few conversions. 
This shot was made about two months ago and reminds me of results that I got 
in the 50s and 60s using Plus-X with deep yellow or red filters.  I can't 
say much about the subject matter, since I was just shooting to get 
accustomed to the camera.
