1/13/06 - Strumming Hands

Still searching for a "Hands" image for next month's themed competition. This one doesn't do a lot for me, but I had to try it. My photography mentor uses the 3-C's when he's critiquing a photo - 1. Craftsmanship (focus, lighting, color, etc. - the technical aspect); 2. Composition; 3. Creativity. This one would score well on Creativity, but I'm not sure about the rest.
Since today is the PAD group's self portrait Friday, maybe this qualifies. Almost need to be a contortionist to snap this shot & pose at the same time. The toughest part was holding my hand still for the 30 second exposure.

Nikon D70
30s f/40.0 at 105.0mm full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
