Description

mid day, shot from third story above pool. This was a rare quiet moment at the pool when all the kids had gone to the beach, and 'mom' got to relax a bit. I love the way the water reflects. The dark upper boarder is from the shadow of the pool wall, but I think it adds dimension and like the color along with the deep orange of her suit and floating ring.
I could have taken it from poolside, but I wanted the feeling of having 'space', since that's exactly what she WOULDN'T have as soon as the kids came back!
