This action transforms your color photo into a richly textured monochrome image with strong light separation, shadow depth, and tactile filmic presence. It’s ideal for portraiture, architecture, and high-impact editorial black & white imagery. Instead of simply desaturating, it creates a true monochrome interpretation through.

Features:

• Simple, easy and fun to use – even for complete beginners.
• Saves hours and days of work.
• Fully layered and customizable results – every element is a single layer.
• Lot of options for customizing the results.
• Readme file included.
