Good idea for photo. How did you do it? I wonder how it would look if he was a little further from the camera and just a bit out of focus-just a thought...
Interesting concept. I like the composition of the shot (square vs diagonal hands). Not too fond on the wierd lighting of the hands, i think it would've been better if we could actually see the whole hands. Not sure this represents Surrealism tho.. 4
Nice innovative lighting technique. Also, quite emotive. A deep sense of hopelessness portrayed. The glare between fingers kind of lessens the impact for me. An 8..
