20090226 - TITTC Idle Hands 2

Hmmm - maybe I should've gone for the dark side... seems a stronger picture.
This is almost how I originally had the shot in my head: plant backlit with white light and my hand lit with green light from above. The exposure was a bit too tricky to balance though.

Photosynthesis in sympathy with your plant?

An excellent composition. I love the light.

Much better than the other day, far more green fingered rather than incredible hulk. Well done.

Have you been wearing my gloves? :D Seriously though.. great shot!

I really like # 2! The DOF and just barely seeing the hand. Very nice.

I like this one better, I think because of the long leaves and fingers. Excellent

Nancy Lobaugh		27-Feb-2009 00:21
some of the chlorophyll rubbing off on your fingers?? I like this one best..

J. Scott Coile		26-Feb-2009 23:42
Tough decision but I lean toward this!

Kevin Chester		26-Feb-2009 23:05
Second one gets my vote Phil, great control of the light in both shots.

Sabine Stetson		26-Feb-2009 22:40

Guest		26-Feb-2009 22:33
