When you use Desaturate option in Photoshop by Image > Adjustments > Desaturate (Shift+Ctrl+U) definitely it will make B&W Image, But B&W DEPTH will be LESS. Desaturating an image simply removes the colour, but isn’t that what we want? A photograph is made up of various tones. When you desaturate an image it removes all the colour information and makes all areas of the image that are the same brightness or contrast the same shade of grey. This results in a flat and washed out looking image. The Best Method I found is by Using GRADIENT MAP.. Open a color image in Photoshop. Set the foreground color to black and the background color to white. Choose Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Gradient Map to add a new Gradient Map adjustment layer. The Gradient Map doesn’t remove any colour information, it just replaces it with a colour value from your chosen range. So if you select a black to white gradient the Gradient Map will swap the original colours for a grey tone of the same brightness, which helps maintain the overall contrast of your image with More DEPTH.
