 My hands again :-). I wonder if I had a title I would have scored better? Not that I scored bad or anything. I just wonder if I lost some points for not having a title.

Thanks everybody for the great comments!

I thought this might be yours Philup! It has your signature style, and looks AWESOME!

Congratulations on such a strong 11th place finish and a great score.

Hmmmmm. . .maybe a title would have gotten you up into the top few. . .but it sure didn't affect my vote!

Looks a lot like my hands at work. I build and rebuild machinery for veg packing plants. It's really difficult to clean it out from under your nails if you get dirty daily like this. The thumb nail needs some under it. Good lighting, good subject, fits the challenge theme.

I like it, although to tell you the truth, the upper hand confuses me in its orientation. 7

Neat setup, really like the use of the negative space.

Great image. I was afraid dirty hands would be played out for this challenge, but I must admit... This one was executed nicely!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I envisioned something like this. Nicely executed. Great detail. I'm such a geek - I'd like it better if it had a cool title, but that's just me. No points deducted because it doesn't. 8

very expected subject. well lightened and cropped

Can you please provide a caption, i am tempted to do that myself. This is an exceptional pic. The square framing reinforces the feeling of stability.

beautiful detail and i LOVE the un-usual pose of the hands!
