I like the crop very much, the light is superb against the skin.
 
quick try at 2 B+W which one? not used to processing in B+W used elements 3 for image A. and gimp for image B big differance in processing the same image.

typical something between the two. I must agree looking at them again, not enough detail in the highlights on second one, first one a little too dark. would you play with contract and brightness after conversion to B+W or before?
 
This is by no means perfect but along the lines of what I would want to do.

I have seen some coversions which use a filter on photoshop (infrared perhaps) which makes the blacks / greys darker. I've been unable to achieve that with this.

The image is sharper and the contrast is slightly lower to avoid the blown highlights on her forehaed and nose.

I definatly need to spend time working out what can be done with photoshop. I only really use levels and some of the quick fixes. with work, 2 young kids, woodworking theres not much time left in a week.
