Mary Anne, absolutely give it a go! I am sure you can do much better work than this and certainly much younger coloring would be more aesthetic. Thanks for your comments, everyone! ~Sharon
Well seen, Sharon. It shows a very real person, and the ring adds a nice element to the composition. You know, I've been considering an image of "flesh on flesh" bit didn't want to use my senior-citizen body or any parts thereof, so I've been waiting to snag some younger person. I hope you won't mind if I submit something using my husband's young nieces who are visiting. I promise not to copy your idea! LOL.

Thanks, Jano & Rod! I meant the background to be ambiguous although Rod has gotten it in one! And, yes, I agree that it would have been much more dramatic if my hand had been over one of my bulgy things but mine seem to look best in a tank top. After carefully considering other 56 year-old bulgy parts the knee seemed the least gross way to go. Thanks for your comments! ~Sharon

I know Jano would have preferred a shot of your hand over one of your womans bulgy things but I'm quite content with your hand on your knee. Very good shot for the topic Sharon well done.
Ok, I'm slapping myself silly again! Sometimes the most simple shots can be so on topic. This is really creative and on topic. As far as the *...I would have positioned the hand on a different body part only because I cannot tell what the subject (you?) is placing your hand on, and it would have made it more of a dramatic image. jano
