CC: Interesting subject choice here, and the hand takes it from being a straight nature to feeling as if it is a gardening shot. The focus feels a little bit soft, paticularly on some of the flowers in the foreground, but that could just be a bit of camera or hand shake.

Fantastic! If the hand wasn't there you'd think that these plants were growing in the ground - are they??? Well done!

Weird.... there's a strange optical illusion going on in this photo that makes the fingers look HUMUNGOUS. Not very aesthetically pleasing. Maybe a wider angle would have helped.

I like the hand as a background. It sets off the yellow flowers nicely. Nice color saturation here. blossoms are a tad out of focus.

More separation from the background would help make the flowers stand out even more. It's hard to restrict the DOF on many digital cameras (like mine). In this case, you might have been able to stand on a chair or something to get more distance between the hand and the background.

these are nice... i wonder if a composition without the hand could be stronger? - setzler

Yeah, you got to get your hand out of the picture. Just remember... never do that again and then you can start working on other aspects.

Clever idea using the hand, very original. You've done it well too.

Great use of hand to add perspective and dimension to this shot.
