 I wanted this shot to be so much better than it was, but didn't have the resources ro do it. As it was I crouched over and tried to pull my head out of the shot while the camera was on the tripod in front of me.

Sometimes you just have to try things..

Wow, a great interprtation of an artistic work. I like that it's an interpretation, and not an exact reproduction.

nice try but this does not really capture the idea behind the escher hands, where the hands actually create one another and so creates the visual dichotomy
i think if you shot this with a lot less light and used black velvet to make the hands disappear at the appropriate lengths, it would work much better

Good colour, sharp and clean, but the head shadow is a shame. I like, tho'!

Nice lighting & clothing choice. Might have chosen pens that weren't blue, but that's just me. Good shot.

Nice exposure, but appears oversharpened. The outline around the hands is very distracting.

I'm afraid you've been outmatched in the Escher tribute idea; though I know not by who.
