Wonderful Ale its the side lighting that brings out the textures with the shadows that stand out for me!!
a lovely study in textures, well done :)
occhio ci vuole BBBBBBBBBBBravo.....
Old, eh? We start growing old from the moment we are conceived in our mother's womb, thats when we start to die.. depressing thought, heh. Have to agree with danob, the side lighting really does bring out the textures. Beautiful shot, Ale. huggles
waves hi i try not to notice this getting old but feel it every once in awhile... a hand of character & skill... wonderful shadows but hides the life line :]
pinch ...hi Cynlee...reminds Me of My High Five...excelent defined Photography My Friend....I wish I could do a shot like this....but, My Hand is far too Young :]
Thats a vivid picture and if it were me, I would title it diffrently. Something like...... An experienced hand......... hand with expereince........... Read this hand or palm or something like that.:O))
The life line says they're going to live a long, long time :) I like these kind of shots, really makes you think...
A hand, full of character, that comes with age...it's a bit like Catch 22..can't have one without the other:P Great dramatic lighting really brings out the textures and the mood:)
Yeah, good stuf. Realy grabbing me ;) Love the hard light and deep shadows, they make dephts in the shot.
The heiroglyphics of time and experience... the imprintings of joy, sorrow, laughter and pain... beautifully captured...
Excellent moody picture , light is great.The B&W gives it much force .
fantastica!!!!!
A wonderful shot, if somewhat depressing title... I really love the thumbnail too....
you too eh?(growing older) interesting..good shot. :-)
I'm personally against getting old. :) Great shot...
We may be getting older, but we should never grow up!! Fantastic work of art, Ale!! cappuccino V
wonderful light, excellent photography
Beautiful composition...I read palms, now I know you ;)
I love the strong highlights and shadows, it really emphasises the textures of skin and background! Excellent =)
