Not sure how this will do, many thanks to Marva & Hanae for supplying the hands, somemay say the ring steals the show, I say it adds a nice element into the photo that is of 2 hands Melding together, a bond of friendship.

First entry with my new 24-105, fingers crossed.

We had a very similar idea when this challenge came up didn't we! Only mine was centered around a baby's hand and yours was friendship. I think this is really good, and I agree that the ring adds interest to the photo. It looks raw and real. Great job as always, MAK! I love it when you get higher than you think you are going to get :)

Good picture, good message. Can't make up my mind whether I like the ring being there or not. Overall I gave 8.

Very nice black and white hand photo. One of the best in the challenge.

Nice image - Like the softness of this .Maybe would have tightened the crop a little more for impact.

I like the idea. I think it would have been better if the background was solid, perhaps a dark color.

I like the BW conversion as well as the "message". Not sure if would have used the ring? The blurred background is nice as well. Maybe a more DOF to get all of the hands in clear would be nice, but that is a personal preference. -7-
