Thank you Nusbaum and Jmsetzler.. There were a lot of strong images, so I'm not suprised. Of course, one always hopes to do better. I appreciate your sentiments.
Beautiful - very emotive and lighting (though probably not what people might consider technically perfect) works superbly for me. Like the strong shadows and the way the hand disappears into those.
Like the picture very much.
Just wondering though if the back of the hand should be a bit lighter, would show more a working mans look with vains showing
