Someone may remember when I posted this in color. I have been playing around with channel mixer in Photoshop to convert images to black and white and this is one image I tried it on.
Never saw the Original post, though, I think this Shot was meant to be Monochrome! Love the details of the Cafe tables and Chairs through the Glass!! The street, the Sign and the Subject all flourish in Clarity!
Cindy, although you've posted the original colored version a couple of years ago, I still can remember it. Think it even originates from 2007 or 2008. Because you deleted the original, a comparison can't be made, but I think you can be satisfied by the result.

Cindy, I do remember that one, and by Mr. C.'s comment it does not seem that long ago, how time flies! I think this is a superb B&W. I'm a fan of such work even though I have done very little of them. Tigs♥ =^..^=
The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
Cindy - Beantown at the NAPP workshop - I remember the scene and the color version of this image. This b/w version works well for the comp. As I recall, the restaurant front was black, so it frames the focal area very well here. Thad
