When I posted my first shot of Samar Breitem back in March I thought I'd post this one shortly afterwards. At the time though I had two versions: this one, and a colour version, and try as I might I couldn't decide between them. As you'll know if you follow our new blog I used both images to illustrate a post on how to decide which images to convert to black and white. So if you're curious about the colour version, take a look.
