Thanks Christina. Thank you too Bill. When I took this picture the "honest work" had a double meaning. I saw the farmers hands as the primary subject but the old chair on which he is resting I saw also within the context of being well used and seeing some "honest work". If I crop any closer that double meaning would be lost to me??

The left thumb tells quite a story. I like this but it feels too wide. Have you tried a tighter crop on 1 or both sides? Bill Warren

Yes, this is fantastic. I particularly like the one index finger poking out that speaks of many many many days of hard labor and possibly quite a painful little accident. Is this someone you know?
