Hands

Fun with Photoshop. Thanks to my teen, for letting me take pictures of her hands. I had originally thought about doing this as a b&w, but it felt kind of like a painting, after I saw it on the screen. Slowly, I am getting more practiced at this program, but still lots of room for improvement.

Thanks for being kind to the flower from my mother-in-law's back yard. Pretty soon, I won't be able to shoot them any more.

Thanks, too, for visiting. I appreciate it, very much.

You are an inspiration re Photoshop and I really want to learn it. You son has such expressive hands and you've captured them well. Great background! Have fun on your meetup!

Very nicely artistic and painterly indeed!

[Danette Thompson]

Very artistic. Seems to carry a lot of emotion.

[Jane Pittenger]

Potent and beautiful. There is a bit of overflow of the fabric layer onto the left (viewer's left) arm that I would think would be worth the trouble to get rid of

[Kim Harper]

You're learning a lot. Such a delicate image. I like the simplicity too.

[Kathy]

Pretty.
