Actually, I believe it is Aces and Eights that is reputed to be the "dead man's hand."
Skin tones run a little too much to the red. Especially the little finger of the right hand. Almost a ripe tomato color on my monitor. 4

Hey - you cheated! I don't know any superstition which would fit, but nevermind... your picture loads without problems for me! I wish you good luck for the challenge... 6 - KAOS.

Super focus and lighting. the skin is almost a bit orange, but nothing serious. great angle and framing/cropping. A really nice job. Good luck in the challenge. ~Hbunch7187~

Now that it has finally opened I see it clearly and it is a true 10. I don't know what anyone did to get it to open, but thank you so much. It is beautiful. Color is fantastic and the texture of the skin is so clear. right sown to the light scar on the left thumb and the red spot at the base of the rigtht thumb. I like the table . Only thing wrong for me, even though I understand why you did it, I would have liked to have it show a little more of the person's hand. So glad I could correct my score

Haven't heard of this one, look forward to seeing the explanation.
Nice photo, good composition, nicely balanced.
