The Photo Was taken at my Sister's place in Moncton, NB. Canada.... before her delivery... my sister is in the photo.Time
Afternoon, can't remember exactly at what time, but as you can see from the window, it was a snowy day.Lighting
I wanted my photo to express one thing.. the new light coming (I'm sure that every mother and every couple would be looking forward to the day of delivery as a new beginning a new light to their family) I placed my flash (Nikon SB-900) inside the cradle of the coming baby, and managed the exposure to match the outside of the window.. asked my sister to stand in front of the window to take her silhouette holding her belly (the new light) and took the photo..Equipment
Camera: Nikon D300s Lens: 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR Flash: Nikon SB-900Inspiration

Always keep an eye to the surrounding you are shooting in, indoors, outdoors, and take all the time you need... and always try to learn, there are always new things and techniques that you can learn... Youtube Channels really help....
