B & W, Sepia
The B & W (Black and White) and Sepia tools, meanwhile, don’t correct anything. They simply drain the color from your photos. B & W converts them into moody grayscale images (a great technique if you’re going for that Ansel Adams look); Sepia repaints them entirely in shades of antique brown (as though they were 1865 daguerreotypes).
Open a photo in Edit mode, and then click the Black & White or Sepia buttons. That’s all there is to it. If you change your mind, you can use Edit → Undo Convert to B&W to restore the color immediately, or choose Photos → Revert to Original at any point to return to your original file.
Tip
If you don’t see the B & W or Sepia buttons, you can always Control-click the photo and choose the corresponding command from the shortcut menu.
