I understand that some models do not want to show their nipples yet are happy to appear nude or semi nude. However, the arm across the breasts is a very deliberate way of hiding them. If you look at this image we see her right hand is very delicate and the left arm looks like it is desperately trying to keep things hidden. It is an uncomfortable contrast.

    very very great... the lights and the pose... 

David makes an interesting observation which I must admit to not seeing at all. Perhaps both hands under the belly would have been a good alternate pose.

But I do see a balance of sensitivity and tenderness in celebration of motherhood not for the sake of semi-nudity. The only thing I wish was absent are the folds of her right underarm. 

I love the B&W mild tones and the backgrouind made contrast! Among other that is! Cheers my friend!

David...Thanks for the visit and observations. I don't know if you have ever had the experience of trying to cover up a part of your body that is normally much smaller, but that's probably what you are seeing (>8. I just don't know if it could have been a more delicate touch.

Bob...Thank you..I always appreciate your visits!

Michael...Thank you! Duly noted. Maybe I will see how some editing looks under the arm.

Pierre...Thank you for your visit. I appreciate it!
