Oh-My-Gosh! Here's one I found posted on Facebook, of a fellow I went to college with. He's using it as his avatar picture...I shot this in 1984! Thirty years ago! This is the full-size image I pulled off of Facebook...apparently he or his wife scanned an old B&W print I gave him. I recall I shot this set by dorm room window light. The rooms had one wall that was basically a BIG, big wall of window, maybe 8 feet high and 12 feet across, in three panes. He was seated in a desk chair, and I was sitting across the room, narrow rooms they were, with a Nikon and 85mm f/2 Ai Nikkor, the close range which is what gives the hand the illusion of such size.
