The Beauty of Motherhood

Comment by rimu:
I love seeing pregnant women. There is definitely something beautiful about the "lump". A different pose would have made it easier to tell what this image was of (other than the caption). Next time see if you can get rid of the distracting horizontal waistband mark (either get her to wear lower riding pants/skirt or wait until the skin rebounds).

Nice idea. I like everything, except the focus seems to be on the pants rather than the face.

Something about this is very pleasing to me. It's earnest and fresh. I might like to see you play a bit with levels, curves, etc. But that's just my taste. I think the focus on the face could be a bit more sharp. I'm sensing a slight bit of blur and it should be all about the face. I'm wondering if in the placement, you focused on the back of the chair. 6

Nicely done and creative. You should enter the next self portrait challenge, if you can ever get around to it.

With this pose, I don't think so!! :-)
I'd like to see focus a little sharper on your face (maybe that's what your looking for, anyway)
