A photographic moment, captured in chalk pastel. This image is an experiment in light and reflections. A few simple bubbles remind us we are under water, and the reflections in the water's surface above mother and child mirror the scene. Overall the image carries the gentle blue hue of a swimming pool. Tiles in the background are hinted at rather than depicted fully, so as not to distract from the main subject.
