Very good picture, I like the warm tones of the hand and gold against the black background. But after the competition you would want to remove that distracting piece of skin on the finger. 8

Although this is a very good / well shot image, I feel it is to much of a copy of the origional. Technicaly I think it's great.

Love the colors on this, but the DoF doesn't blow my skirt up.

Great effect here. The "body" really stands out and the viewer has to study it a moment or two to see if it is a "shadow' or a silouette. Good work. I like the overall composition -- it is close enough that there is not a lot of clutter in the background that can distract, yet it still includes enough to give the picture some context.

It is a bit dark overall, but that may be my monitor. The details on the left side are almost indistinguishable.

Good work and best to you in future challenges. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me.

Nice idea and composition, the only thing at it is a very small thing and I am totally nitpicking here is the hang nail on the middle finger, it makes me want to reach in with my nail clippers and clip it!!! LOL...but like I said that is a very small thing!! 8

Nice depth. it would be interesting to see the focus on the middle cross. It does lead one from the front to back fairly good, stopping in the middle.

fantastic... Other then the hangnail on the middle finger. Nice light, and the fingernails are just like the hobbits.
