Well, I have it on good authority that this is Kyla, apparently trying to prove Tracy wrong--that she *can* raise the camera above her belly.

This is simply great. Highest marks, & thanks.

pixpie said 511 days ago:

Now thats unique view....well done !

bslomovic said 511 days ago:

Hmmmm, well I wonder who this could be?
Has the third of three finally spoken?
Not sure how to judge this as a "self-portrait" and not quite sure about the composition. It is certainly unique and exposes a highly relevant aspect of your current self. Nonetheless, the exposure is great (particularly on the linen).

bslomovic said 511 days ago:

(I meant light exposure in that last sentence). Nice one Kyla.

mtmartini said 511 days ago:

Yeah! Big fat belly! ;-)

Ana said 511 days ago:

I got a hint of this one, with a comment in another shot! yay! this is so beautiful. wow.

smkpl said 511 days ago:

a great photo and a great take on the theme

nattfodd said 511 days ago:

Great picture, quite original and probably says more about you than the usual "picture of my face" self-portrait. High marks.

zulu said 511 days ago:

Congrats for the pregnancy :-)

Tanja said 511 days ago:

oh sweet! i like this one! has it just been taken? when's the due date? girl or boy?...cute!

dseguin said 511 days ago:

Okay, this one's not totally doing it, but I really want to see you have another go at it. I'm not sure on composition here, but you've obviously got a great subject to work with.... :0)

kadenajack said 511 days ago:

Excellent. Usually shots of pregnant bellies really creep me out. However, this seems natural and beautiful from this angle. Maybe that's because it looks so similar to what I see looking down. lol

Nice work.

kadenajack said 511 days ago:

I think I pushed you over the top, so let me be the first to congratulate as well.

kadenajack said 511 days ago:

On the feature that is.

mtmartini said 511 days ago:

Congrats to the absolutely fabulous looking Kyla!

kadenajack said 511 days ago:

I just realized we have two belly shots that are featured now. Conventional thinking would lead one to conclude I should go shoot mine and post it. Then reality hit me in the head and told me not to make the audience puke if I want high ratings.

King said 511 days ago:

...oh, Jack, you silly.

Congratulations, Kyla!

bslomovic said 511 days ago:

Congrats on the feature Kyla +

bslomovic said 511 days ago:

c'mon people throw Craig a few 5's so we can have all the Martins featured this week damnit!

kyla said 511 days ago:

Wow thanks everyone for the kind comments and feature!

Tanja- surprise baby so you tell me whether it is a boy or girl and it will be making its debut end of June.

Dan- I am sort of with you here and I plan on doing something else- but I am just glad it made you comment.

Kadenajack- if you do the same photo you will get high marks from me, even if your belly is the result of too many beers... or as i am sure my boyfriend would say "is there such a thing as too many?!!"

Brant, King, Tray, Nattfold, Zulu, Smkpl, Ana and Pixpie- again thanks.

Ana said 511 days ago:

yay for belly pics!!

mtmartini said 511 days ago:

such a yummy tummy! You can't tell that I am almost more excited to be and auntie than she is to be a mummy. ;-)

stigwick said 511 days ago:
