Actually, whatever digital processing was done to those AA works was too drastic. The contrast is pushed way up on each of those photos, which makes them visually inferior to Powerdoc's examples. B&W is beautiful because the lumina detail is unfettered by the missing chroma information. Just look at the beautiful gradient in the pond photo...or in the stonework of that cathedral. The feathered look is why I love infrared photography in particular.
