^hesitation had a cool idea for me: that I should use hands in interesting poses for my Femme Elemental series. So when she came to visit me on the weekend, we did some shooting of her own lovely hands. Although I don't think the result fits with my Femme Elemental series, I do believe they deserve their own series. This is the first one. Thanks :hesitation: for the great idea. :)

Hands are so expressive. They communicate so much. Shapes. Directions. Emotions.

edit: I spelled the word "compel" wrong. I'm so fired! :P

Great pose, the isolated hands do offer a lot of form and variation to explore. I love the way you'e lit this.

Very nice. Alina did a great job posing them hands ;)

Can't wait to see the others ... will mean much more to me. But for this one, I definately think of the ballet. I am also picturing a painting or two by Degas.

Brilliant lighting. It adds an extra softness to the image. I agree, hands can be very expressive, for instance we use hands as gestures in everyday life, dancers use there hands to extenuate their movements. Greta capture.
