This is the second color photo that I transitioned to black and white. To get a strong black and reduce the blue I increased yellow to +40 and orange to +40 in the grey scale window in Photoshop CS6. I also increased the black and contrast in the RAW window. This seemed to work but others may have other suggestions.
Definitely the mono version! But I am biased…

Thank you. Any specific reason why? I know you have photos in both color and black and white. Why one vs the other?

I used to shoot black and white film in the olden days. When it comes to people photography I usually prefer mono. Colour can be a distraction from the subject.

Yes I remember some of the stunning portrates that you did in B&W. I’d review them but I’m on my iPhone right now.
