 Auto contrast in PS. The desired effect was not only the shutter speed to create the trail, but also the lighting to try to make the reflexion as dark as possible,showing only the hand, as if it was appearing from darkness.

Nice idea and execution, sharpness. Tighter crop would be better, making left hand (and reflection) bigger.

without the title I wouldn't have known what was going on... I think that's ok, but I really like it when photos speak for themselves...

goo concept but there's a light streak that is distracting and I would have cropped out the sleeve
