That is a beautiful shot b/w shot of Mrs Obama.
Ain't she sweet? Absolutely fabulous!
The B&W photo is what B&W is about. She is fierce in that picture.
Black and white is amazing, but what's up with the group shot? Why is there a big space between the two groups of women? Is it just a weird way to compose a shot, or is there some secret political message I'm not clever enough to pick up on?
love the pictures.

I imagine that the group shot is like that because it is going to be spread across two pages in the British Vogue. The gap is probably where the crease will be.
ah ha. that makes sense. far better to have a weird gap than stick someone in the fold with a staple in her face.
