Comment by HBunch:
At first, I thouhgt that this was either poorly taken, poorly edited, or lost a lot during the upload. I now notice that this effect was done on purpose due to the fact that the original file name is "psyshodelic belly". I will admit that I don't like it very much, due to color distortion, darkness and angle. However, I would loved to have seen this at a side angle, with either full color or black and white. from a bit farther back, and the hands kind of cradling the belly rather than holding up the shirt. I think this was a really great idea, but in my opinion, not well presented. Also, if this is how you planned on it looking, and you are happy with it, then just tell me to shut up, ignore this and try again for the next challenge. Take the photos YOU like, and don't worry about anyone but your self. Good luck in the challenge.

Technically there is a child in that one.... Maybe :-D

Not sure if I like the solarization effect

Comment by Kavey:
For me this is more about upcoming childhood than actual childhood - though perhaps if one has younger siblings there is the memory of mum's belly, and touching it and waiting for the addition to the family to arrive?
Is the high contrast and low depth of colour intentional?

Wow, looks like a peach! Cool coloring, but I don't care for the posterized effect.

we've all "been there". I just love this picture! It looks like a painting. What a wonderful idea and a great mood portrayed by the color, the lighting, the close up view.

I can't tell if this is the belly of a pregnant woman, or a Mr. Potatohead!
