Hi

My friend, who is pregnant, has asked me to take some B&W pictures of her bump. Having Googled, I only get the usual digital muck. Can anyone here post me some links to pictures they've taken with film and tell me what film they used and any additional details? Or if not pictures they've takne themselves, photos that they know of by others?

I will likely use Fuji Acros 100, 35mm, using my Nikon F5's.

Thanks

Ted

Not mine, I wish I had that idea.

That is a great one. Personally, I'd want to do it with more "steps".

I'm a little confused---is the question about technical approaches (choice of film, etc.) or aesthetic ideas? It sounds like you've already settled on the basics of the former, and the latter probably requires a lot of discussion with the subject...
