Shadows

This year I made a commitment to improving my photography skills.  I don't have time for traditional classes so I've been researching and reading and spending time scouring the blogs and Flickr pages of tons of portrait photographers.  One place that I have found lots of great info is I Heart Faces, a wonderful community of photographers of all skill levels.  Each week they hold a themed contest (for bragging rights) that anyone can enter.  I've been hesitant to enter anything because I still (and probably always will) doubt myself as an artist.  But this weeks theme jumped out at me and I also happened to have just taken a lovely photo that fit.  So here is my entry in the I Heart Faces: Shadows contest. 

   
My beautiful friend Brittany at 35 weeks pregnant

    Such a cool shot! I don't know if I'm more jealous of your unique capture or how your friend looks at 35 weeks pregnant! Well done.

    Beautiful. I love how the reflection in the water almost looks like a watercolor painting.
