Sure, it was in 18.3°C water on a beautiful 15.5°C day in British Columbia. Sure I was up to my chest for almost 40 minutes, but we had amazing lighting while she and her friends were relishing her last moments of pregnancy.
It ended up being one of my favorite photoshoots of my career.
My attempt was to capture the connection between this powerful woman's overtly pregnant body and the beautiful contours of Mother Gaia, which frame the lake and this photo.
We all celebrated life together the entire day and night; life in our awe-inspiring universe, life on this incredibly marvelous planet, our lives, and the life being protected within her.

I am truly honored to have been a part of this and appreciate any and all feedback you care to share.
Let me know if you enjoy creating as much as mother Gaia and I do. I'd love to see what you are working on. Also, please feel free to tag a friend you think would enjoy my work or that I might enjoy theirs.
My plans is to post this in @axeman's LANDSCAPE/SEASCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY AND ART CONTEST.
That being said, I think it's important to mention the contest is supported by @xpilar and SBI and posted in The World of XPILAR.
