Oh Basia, there can be no greater gift than to witness a birth, whether your own child or that of another….. the energy of such miracles always brings tears to my eyes. What a blessed job you have and I can only imagine how wonderful the birth process would be to have you as the “mid”...... And to add to it…..the beautiful photos…..gee – I bet is must be difficult to watch such amazing beauty and not hold a camera for most of the time…...
This is indeed a very special image….well done. You are a true Angel!~
Angela Stewart
Simply gorgeous shot Basia…done with your usual class and high standard. A perfect gift to the parents of this little cherub!

What a treasure indeed Basia. What I love about this shot is that she is so new to the outside world that she is holding her body in a fetal position as if she were still inside her mother’s womb. And how wonderful it must have been to be part of the delivery of this wonderful little girl. Thanks so much for sharing her with us…brightened my day. Congrats to you for such a wonderful capture and to your girlfriend for her lovely new addition to her family. Cheers, Sandra.

You know what I love about this shot!? The tight crop! You make it seem like it’s still in the womb! PERFECTLY SUTING FOR A NEWBORN SHOT! I am extremely impressed!!!! :) Very nicely done!!!!
Basia McAuley in reply to Stacey Dionne’s comment
Thank you so much Stacey! Yes, I agree, I didn’t actually crop this shot at all as it was already a close up but she’s in the ‘in the womb’ position still as she’s only 3 days old in this shot :o)
