My first attempt of using Black and White. I wish now I had made the background darker.

A quick and simple way to darken the background is to add a red filter (R:64 G:0 B:0) of about 20% opacity (I use PSPX2) and then convert to b/w again (don't use Channel Mixer). This should work quite well as well as increasing the contrast.
