Pregnant

A beautiful portrait. I find that most portraits containing some level of nudity or other is all about showing nipples or other things. You have here shown us just how beautiful the human body is, specially the beauty of pregnancy.
The composition is awesome, with the hands hiding those things that most others want to highlight. The shape of this woman along with the texture of her skin against the black background is an awesome image. To me this has to be one of the best portraits I have seen here on deviant art in a very long time.
I find your use of light, and how you capture her shape at this time of her life a time of great joy to be awesome.
Very nicely captured, and great work. I only wish more people would make images like this.

Your vision in capturing this as you did is awesome.
It is not very original to shoot pregnancies, lots of people have done just that, however most people highlight the nipples and not the actual pregnancy, and not the texture of the skin as you have done, so you deserved tops for originality just for making this image more about her true beauty then about what one might have thought people wanted to see.
Your technique in capturing the texture and the way light and shadows play along her skin is great.
To me this image has the impact it intended and then some. It captures the true beauty of bringing life to the world in a very nice way.
Very nice work <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Big Grin)"/>
