thanks for comments. i was going to call it weathered hands but at the last moment it seemed to be prying open the screen.

btw, those are my own rough and rugged masculine hands ; ) ..

awesome lighting and framing--the texture of the skin and nails give it a crazy feel---very nice work! :)

Interesting photo if just for all the texture in that skin (although cuticles like that make me feel uncomfortable!). The lighting and composition here are cool.

These are hands with real character. The black and white is super here....fantastic tone. The composition is also very good. I sure like this shot, I love the feeling here.

Excellent lighting and focus. Very interesting. Perfect in b&w. Well done. Good Luck!

A very good concept. I feel the lighting lets it down a little - it's a bit *too* shadowy for my liking.
Still, a pretty good shot and very imaginative. Well done.

I like the way you've filled the entire shot with the hands. Great shot.

I like the tones, but I find the hand nails a little bit distracting. Good luck in the challenge. Jacko

Cool. Looks real. Just wish you hadn't off-cropped this one. Would have more realism if had been centered. But good job. Give his cuticles a manacure. They make mine hurt. I'd give this one an 8. PLT
