Doe Mountain Trail Mesa - Sedona, Arizona

Taking interesting pregnancy photos isn't easy, I've come to realize. It's a bit of a tightrope act of trying to show the belly in all its glory while at the same time taking extra care to show it (and mom) in a flattering way.

I like how there are three distinct 'formations' to look at in this photo. You have the baby bump of course, the small stack of rocks that someone created, and the grandeur of the mountain valley.

Fun with textures

Inspired by my friends over at the image is found photography, I thought I would take a crack at introducing some textures to my images. Here is my first experiment.



f/2.8, 1/80s, 17mm, ISO 800

For reference, this is a sample of the concrete texture I used (the original is too big to display here). I flipped the texture horizontally so the crack you see there would appear on the right side instead of the left as it is below.

(I found this image on some free texture site.)
