very good image...very thoughtful picture...it could say a million things...like i'm scared of being a mother when I'm still a child inside

it's like her last chance to be a child so she's taking advantage of it. amazing.

geraldine is so right...you can interpret this photo in so many ways. I see it as a juxtaposition of a mother and child (unborn) in a future space where mother and child (alive and kicking) will eventually frolick about playing with one another. I'm not sure when the subject is due or if she's delivered already, but it would be great to shoot a similar shot with her actualy playing with the child at the swing or even her in the same stance as seen here, with her child seated in the swing!!! This is such a great photo!!

i love environmental portraits. this one is definitely one filled with lots of details that tell the tale of the story. the landscape and the light create the perfect mood.
