I really like the black and white with the subject. It helps to create a very real feeling. If you have any pointers that you can give me on black and white photography I would greatly appreciate it.

I couldn't improve this if my life depended on it. I think the lighting is inspired, the detail of the grease on his hands is amazing, full of emotion. None of the background details are distracting either. I absolutely love this. 10

I love this photo. It is simple, yet gives a clear view to the working hands of a laborer.

Very representative of this challenge. Excellent sharpness. Lighting - just a tad dark, but I think I'm O.K. with that. Nicely done! 9 Rob the Swash

Excellent! The tone, grime and texture of the hands and the rag that mimcs the skin - a ribbon for sure - good luck -10

This is one of the shots of hands in this challenge that I really like. I think that the dirtiness of your subjects hands really makes it sharp. Well done.

I like the texture of the hands. A very realistic photo...
Post actions
really amazing, the dirt on his hands is tough, and the dof was well done, and the light from the back really tops it off. my only critisism is that maybe if you would have zoomed out and also had gotten the arms of this man into the photo, it might have been better. 8

I love it! The texture and clarity is wonderful. Love the shallow DOF, too. Wouldn't mind seeing just a bit more detail of the tools, but that's such a nitpick. One of my favorites so far this challenge.
