Julie, the more I look at this the more impressed I am. I really thought this would ribbon. I love the light, lines, atmosphere...it is a very deserving winner of a blue ribbon in a challenge which yeilded some very so so photos.
I am also happy to know the potential of the Sigma 105mm 2.8 macro which I also own!!! |

We held our hands next to the window and that is the only light source. Background is a piece of foam core that I painted about 4 feet behind us. Because I wanted to use my own hands in the picture (They have lots of lines on them.), the hardest part was triggering the remote with my foot and trying to position our hands so that they were framed correctly. Out of about 50 (yes 50) shots there were only two that had the hands in the right place. This one just needed a little cropping at the top.
In PS I cropped, adjusted levels and curves, increased red saturation then converted to black and white using mainly green channel (80 green and 20 red I think) so that the reds would darken. Sharpened, added a slight hue and that is it. Thanks for the great scores and comments! |

| This is such a wonderful photo. I can relate to this. I love the composition. Wish the left edge of the photo wasn't so centered. I love the halo effect, the shadows, the texture on the hands. Great in black and white! Very beautiful photo! |

I simply love this. My eye is content to sit and soak it in without being tempted to flit from here to there trying to absorb or deciper details.
It took me a few minutes just to write that much because I was just sitting... looking... and giving deep sighs as I felt tension draining.
10 from me. This one simply moves me. |

Lighting, composition, detail and tones ... just brillaint!
I am sure 640px, 150k limit isn't doing it proper justice. |
