"The hand with the opposable thumb"
Weekly Challenge #28: Hands

I believe humans get a lot done, not because we're smart,
but because we have thumbs so we can make coffee. ~ Flash Rosenberg

Like the shallow DOF in this fine comp. Contrast of the male hand on the delicate tablecloth is wonderful. & yes got to have some caffeine to start the day handily!
