Clever perspective on this one to create the feeling of a hand coming through a portal (or something) from some sort of fantasy world. Hand looks a little fake but the plastic nature of the hand could just be a characteristic of said world. I like the stark tones on this one, but I feel the photo lacks a certain aesthetic punch.
simple (and a bit creepy) b&w and misty mood adds to the effect, the "chopped off" wrist doesn't quite work for me (and I know you had to go to extra efforts to get that effect) - as presented -- one of my favorites this challenge
great lighting. i wish the end of the wrist was blurred to indistinction. that and maybe some of the fingers are just a bit too far down in the frame for me. a very good idea nonetheless.
