Hi Murray,
While I like the B&W conversion...........not sure that the noisy/grainy BG is adding..........unless maybe you try and accentuate it even more!
Will be interesting to see what others think,

Hi Roman:
Thanks for your comment. You're right of course, it's the blue channel that contributes most of the noise. Here it is with the bg using only the red channel.
