This is me - I love to knit, it is my favorite pasttime. I used my husband as a stand in and got the camera set up. Them I took his place and used my handy dandy remote control. It really didn't look right in full color - nor in black and white. So, I desaturated the whole thing 80% and kind of like how it turned out. My hands aren't very photogenic - they aren't delicate. However, they are good at what they do and don't give me any pain.

The dappled light is beautiful, but also distracting. 7

I tried to do something akin to this for this challenge, but didn't get it anywhere as good as this. I quite like the desaturation also.
