Black and White

I see this image of being duo tone. Or a toned B/W which leans on the green side. Is this the effect you were wanting? Or are you looking for a true B/W.?

k... the image looks slightly different here on the web than when opened in PS on my screen...  it does look greener here... weird.  Well, just pretend it's warm

It really depends on how the conversion is done.  But, I should point out that back when we shot B&W film and made prints to get B&W images, every paper/developer combination had its own look.  There cream based papers and warm tone papers and cold tone papers.  There warm developers and cold developers even developers with chicken-pox.  Oh, wait a minute . . . that was kids with chicken-pox . . .

You had a load of different toners.  Gold, selenium, brown, sepia, etc, that changed the look of the paper and developer combination.  That's before you start getting into gum printing, cyanotype, talbotype, platinum, palladium, bromiol and so on and on and on . . .

When you switch to offset or intalio(sp?) printing you get to duo- and tri-tone printing.

My point, I guess, is that B&W has never been just B&W. 

I've had some bargain basement photo paper that was kind of bluish and it made my whites blue toned, so it's not a silly question. Just look at what metallic paper does to a photo!

Susie,

Your B&W prints are just color prints.  They are printed on the same paper as your color prints, you have just selected a simpler pallet of colors.

I was talking about B&W film printed in a wet darkroom on B&W paper.

Well yeah, makes sense.
