This shot was taken by hand, and includes my finger and my boyf's hand. The background is an A4 printout of a sky. I found it difficult to get the lighting right (trying not to cast shadow on background). Any tips welcome.

This is a nice image. I like how natural and soft the hands in this image look. I also like how you can see the detailed texture of the persons hands. Nice work.
Fitting for the challenge. Background gives the impression of "void" which is good. I think I would have reversed the hand positions a little. I see the smaller finger pointing down to a larger hand. If I were to do this shot I might have moved the finger of God a bit closer to make it appear larger, also more light from the "God" side pointing towards the creation of man. Focus is nice.
You know... I was thinking about trying to recreate a portion of the image of "The Beginning" from Michaelangelo's paintings in the Sistine Chapel as well, but never did it. I like it. :-)
