Very Nice! I honestly can't belive i didn't comment on this b4 hand. I actually thought i did during FreeStudy. In this situation, I really enjoy the image grain! In this particular photo, it personaly makes it for me. The lighting is extreamly nice. I think a tighter crop on the bottom migh be one of the only things i could possably suggest. Along with the other i commented on, This is a very nice peice of work, and i'm suprised it didn't do better in the free study. All though, 130 out of 513 is nothing to cry about!! Keep up the fablous work, and i look forward to seeing your next!

Powerful, bold image. I really like the tonality here. Looks to be quite a story in those hands. Solid clean composition. Awesome concept, executed very well. Great job!

Interesting textures here, which are emphasized by the slight image noise. The lighting is good, but the pose is uninteresting. 7.

I've seen many hand images and this rates with the very best. The deep contrast gives impact.

I like the slight grain of this photo. It works for the dirty hands. The detail of the skin is well done. Good lighting too.
