Self Portrait Challenge: Birth
Originally uploaded by mama k.
When I first saw this photo, I fell in love with it and knew that whenever I got around to starting a Photo of the Week from our Flickr Group this would be one of them. (I’ve technically blogged one other photo from the group before without giving it the title, by the way.)
Anyway, I’m going to try to choose a new photo each Monday to post on the blog.
The woman to whom this photo belongs blogged about it back in May. It’s a beautiful entry, and I highly recommend it.
I find this photo intriguing. I’m drawn to it in a ‘waves on the ocean’ kind of way. I think it’s beautifully representative of Life.
You know how you had spoken earlier about having you “Hand Twin”? This is my stomach twin, literally from the stretch marks and their positioning, color and texture to the scar that is across the right side of the belly (mine is from a ruptured appendix 10 years ago).I just had my son in April and this gives me great hope and love for myself, my body and my family. Thank you…Bless You & Yours.
