just saw that your first post & feature hands theme nr.1 was. cool! so this one should just flow up your sleeve!
agi said 462 days ago:
Thanks Tanja...hopefully my photogaphy & post processing skills are better than they were before ;)
Tanja said 462 days ago:
i really do believe you should've had some more features in the past. But that happens alot around here. Often times the rates are done be the moods of everyone, which i don't think highly of!

agi said 462 days ago:
Hmmm...that's hilarious. I may try it...then again I don't need to get featured that much :)

Beautifully captured. I love the single leaf placed there in your hands with the others blurred in the background.
agi said 462 days ago:
Thanks flipthom...
I remember this day vividly as my wife (it's her hands) and I just finished a bagel from the famed H & H Bagels in NYC and we were sitting at Theodore Roosevelt Park next to the American Museum of Natural History when the leaves start to fall on us after a gust of wind. It was so beautiful and the leaf in her hand was caught before it hit the floor as it's supposedly good luck. Anyway it's a memory I'll never forget as we love NYC.

Those are beautiful hands, may I have them?
pursang said 462 days ago:
I like this image and the single leaf in your palm. The background bokah is also very well done. Because the hands are at a bit of an angle and centered, I find the composition is just a tad 'off' for my tastes. But the image speaks to me in a way that is hard for me to articulate just now. Maybe later tomorrow...
Tanja said 462 days ago:
pursang, i hope you tell us when you found an image where the composition is just perfect in your eyes..i do believe you have written something simular on almost every pic ;-)).
btw which i can almost always relate with. but please do mention when you find "the one" that is right. =)
cheers!
Flatline said 462 days ago:
Are these the same person's hands? The finger-lengths are quite different...
I would have preferred the leaf more on the hand without a ring, as a quasi balance.
Flatline said 462 days ago:
Mmm... H&H Bagels...
Tanja said 462 days ago:
Flatline, check out your own hands..the one you use most is always larger.. so are your feet too! ;-) my sister for instance would love to buy two dif. pairs of shoe sizes..mmh now that would look funny!
agi, thx for sharing that. makes the image even more soothing to look at!!
and how come it's not featured yet???

My name is Chris, you are?
A fun shot, without the leave you could trash it, how big a difference a little piece can make!
(will does hands talk to me eventually?)
agi said 461 days ago:
Boy Weeklyshot sure is a tough crowd ;).
Flatline: Yes as far as I know I only have one wife with two sets of hands Hahah..just kidding. And yes H & H Bagels YUM! It's not only the bagels it's the experience.
Tanja: You're very welcome and like I said...I've thought for awhile now that Weeklyshot is tough to get featured.
ChriZ said 461 days ago:
Just for the record, I gave you high marks.
What I meant with the leave is that if it weren't there it would be way to boring and common, the leave just boosted this image from usual to special, a big difference!
Flatline said 461 days ago:
No question, my left foot is one size larger than the other. I also know that this image (and it's differently sized-finger) is probably due to the angle of the fingers. I did not mean this is in a derogatory manner, just observing it.
Tanja said 461 days ago:
there it is at last! ;-)))
congratulations!!
Flatline..was just a tease..
agi..the last few weeks, somehow, it was very easy to get featured..but this theme boosted it all! it's special and there are (back again) all those great pictures of amazing photographers!
agi said 461 days ago:
