Quite dark here, and perhaps these hands could use a few other symbols to help us out: tools, workbench, etc. Isolating them, we rely on your title to tell us they are carpenter's hands. I like the framing and cropping here, and the pose of the hands is also effective. |

Returning for comments.
A very good concept. I would have opted for a little more light and contrast, otherwise a very nice image. |

Would have been more effective if you'd had tools or wood chips etc. in the background. This just looks like dirty hands of maybe a lumberjack |

Although a good idea, this interpretation isn't very compelling. It's too dark, so the interesting details of the hands' surfaces are obscured. Including some context in the background would have also added interest (for example, his woodshop with tools or works in progress showing, or a newly framed house). |

Perhaps a bit dark and out of focus... I'd like to see the hands a little better to understand just what is so interesting about this person's hands. |

A bit too dark, not enough detail on the rough skin or dirt. |

A little dark for my tastes, but a nice shot. |

Nice idea, but it seems blurry and too dark. |

Carpenter needs to get more lights if he doesn't want to smash his thumbs. This image is quite dark and thus has low contrast. Can't tell if we're looking down at water or up at some tree branches and sky. |

Much too dark--cannot see the callouses and roughness that define a person who works with his hands. |

Great idea! But the darkness really doesn't work for me... |

Lacks contrast, a bit dull. |

A little dark and grainy. More light or maybe even a little levels adjustment in Photoshop could fix it a bit. |
