Simple and stark. I'm curious as to how your subject looks and that may very well be why I think this image triggers my curiosity and questions. Great take on this challenge.
This is a great picture, I'm just afraid that this will be voted down because of the size, you should use the 640 pixels that we are allowed to use in challenges.
I'm not sure which photographer you're tributing, but I like this photo very much. I think it's the composition and highlights on the hands that makes it so interesting. Great photo!
I love the hands and the glass in this shot: lighting and composition are perfect. What disturbs me is the position of the head, with the ear turned towards the glass, I think that it's unlucky.
Part of the fun of the challenge is comparing the photos to the work of the photographers they're paying tribute to. I can't figure out who that would be in this case. Focus on the hands is very good. They make interesting shapes against the soft background.
