I wanted to do something a little different for this weeks photo of the week. I wanted to add to the fold how I edited the RAW file to get my black and white final image. I think it is very important to show you the whole picture, the story, the settings and the tweaks to the RAW file.
Take a look at this video to get the story behind this image!!

Fantastic explanation and great insight on how you made this shot. Excellent!
Thanks for going through your LR work & explaining along the way. Very nice image as well.
awesome video. The subject was great! Its cool to see your moves in LR.
Nice video, as always. I like that you are not putting hours of work to get to the final image.
In lightroom there are a couple of ways to turn a photo to black & and white. Why did you choose to completely desaturate it instead of using the HSL/Color/B&W pane?
Is this your usual choice to turn a picture into black & white?
