A few taken back when I had my Canon 20D, 50mm f1.8or 18-55mm IS.

A few taken recently with my Olympus Trip35, using FujiFilm Neopan Black and Whites ISO400.

(Waterloo station, London. All quiet...)

Some really awesome shots! I love Black and White photography.. I think it brings so much more emotion to the picture.

Can you post your PP neil?

I'm guessing blue channel is suppressed to give a black sky?

1) Used a polarizer then in software increase vibrance.
2) Black and white - Decrease Blue , Increase Green
3) Increase Contrast levels
4) Increase whiteness for clouds
5) Unsharp Mask

Had a play with a photo I took a few weeks back:

Not sure if it's better cropped though:
