Finale

Put a fork in me, here's to your health, caught wet handed, diamonds are.., a rose by any other name, birds of a feather all come together for a week of hand selfies inspired by @deburahiru who once told me she didn't like a shot of my hand that I posted. ♥

OMG, this is fantastic, amazing finale. Love it. Great series.

[Rosie Kind]

[Gerry]

@jayberg That is kind of my philosophy.

[Marc]

Haha ... I keep flipping through all the shots. I rarely assume editing as an option and at first was imagining a single pose like this!

[katy]

@jmrittle This WAS a single pose, Marc. My editing skills aren't nearly this good.

[Rick Schies]

Well I said the other day I liked your creativity, see, everyone else does too. A good series

[Marc]

@grammyn ha, even better!

[katy]

@anazad511 LOL! I am thrilled that you like it, Ana! thanks!

[katy]

@rosiekind So kind of you to say, Rosie. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

[katy]

@gerry You are so nice, Gerry! thanks so much.

[katy]

@tara11 Thanks, Tara!
It was a chores getting it all in one shot

[katy]

@deburahiru THanks, and thanks for the inspiration!!

[katy]

@digitalrn Thanks so much for always being there, Rick. It means so much to me!

[katy]

@silverlight Thanks, Cheryl. the wine was gone this was colored water. I could have used a glass after this!

[katy]

@anazad511 @rosiekind @silverlight @tara11 @deburahiru @jayberg @jmrittle @digitalrn Thanks for being so generous with your praise for this shot. It was a bit of a struggle to get all those objects in my hand and get the hand only with some water droops on it and still take the picture with my other hand. Somoen suggested it was photoshopped but my skills aren't that good. I did highlight some of the drops and leveled out the wine, which is really only colored water (I drank all the wine after the original shot) but that is all the editing that I did to this. Most of my shots are generally quite close to sooc with a little crop and increase in contrast being the main editing tools I use.

[Ruth Moucharafieh]

So you are back!!!! and I missed out........love this series! You always have such clever ideas!!!! Brilliant finale!

[katy]

@ruthmouch Aw, Ruth I have been back a bit just not as constant while you have been traipsing around the continent. Thanks so much for your generous support.

[Buen]

wonderful :)

[katy]

@buendavid Welcome to 365 and thank you for the view and comment.

[Maggiemae]

You have done so well to provide interest with all these pictures with one subject. No back-handed comments here!

[Leslie]

OMG this is so creative and hilarious ... What a great O to your HAND series....

[katy]

@maggiemae First thank you so much and second you are too funny! I loved that clever comment!!

[Darlene]

Love it, what a great finale, Katy. This must have taken some setting up to take your photo so perfectly. I still think my favorite are the drops on your arm.

[katy]

@lesip I really appreciate that so much! thanks for all your support, Leslie!

[katy]

@darsphotos IT wasn't easy but I persevered. I really appreciate you noticing the drops too. thanks.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@ruthmouch yes! She is! Isn't that great? We would miss her too much if she stayed away!

[MaryBeth Dailey]

HeyKaty! Wow! That's a lot of "hand holding" up there. Hee hee! Not sire how you could set all that up and take the pic. But you did it!

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@grammyn what pic did started this? The one Deb didn't like?

[katy]

@espyetta Aww; so sweet your comment to Ruth! This set up was NOT easy but I am not one to give up, sometimes called stubborn. ;~}

Here is the shot that has created the ongoing teasing. http://365project.org/grammyn/365/2012-04-13

[Ruth Moucharafieh]

@espyetta @grammyn You gals are both just great!!!!!

[katy]

@ruthmouch ♥ thanks Ruth!

[m9f9l]

Just looked at the series (and the original). You are such a hoot! @espyetta groan.

[katy]

@m9f9l It should be fun sometimes shouldn't it? Thanks.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@ruthmouch :0) you too, Ruth!

[Mike Gifford]

Okay, I can't believe I wasn't following you since I see your pics all the time. Now you're tagged! Loved the hand story....now all you need is to catch a bird in your other hand... ;-)

[katy]

@mikegifford LOL! you are too funny and I am so unworthy to be followed by you!!! This is really an honor, Mike!

What prompted you to follow me?

[Mike Gifford]

@grammyn Your comment to @deburahiru on her mundane lightbulb pic ;-)

[katy]

@mikegifford So the flattery got to you?! ;~}

[Mike Gifford]

@grammyn Not really...just that you would comment on my question about how to feed the fish! ;-)

[Jan K]

This is very fun, Katy - so clever!

[katy]
