Hi everybody,
yesterday so many members here posted wonderful shots for the Hands-Challenge. I also wanted to be a part of this interesting Challenge, but I didn't know the day - so I am too late.
But that doesn't matter, Kit gave me the idea to show you this beautiful Thai-Lady presenting a typical Thai-dance.
I hope you like it.

Another differnt yet interesting entry6. Lovely colours that are typical to your pics and good control of DOF. Thanks and all the best!!

The hands are amazing.
Oops! The date for posting was yesterday. Not sure if Kit will let this one in. Keep your fingers crossed.

Yes, I agreed with Diana. These hands are impression. But I think Kit will be accept this late entry! OK or not, sir?
Regards,

Aha! Now what did we say? Early entries - OK. Late entries - not a chance. Now, there is but ONE late entry and it IS dated 22. Now Germany isn't far enough east for 5:57pm to squeak in before midnight Alaska.
Much as I would LOVE to add this, the long and tedious discussion between us all much earlier on resulted in the decision that absolutely forbids a late entry.
I will transfer it to the theme file after the results are final, so it will have an appropriate resting place.
Unless I get at least 65 messages from the rest of the entrants pleading for an allowance. That might not happen.
Aside from that, the selective focus is perfect for the accentuation of the hands, with the girl JUST blurred enough yet visible (discernable).

Hi Wishnu

I like the focus on the fingernails & the shallow dof. The womans' warm smile, is a good addition. Tfs!

I hope she don't fight like in X-MEN II with those claws :)
Yes i know it's more an ornement!
It's very well find! Only hands in sharper focus help!

Hallo Sabine,
hier hast Du fantastisch die ganze Aufmerksamkeit auf die Hände gerichtet, die Tänzerinnen in Thailand drücken sehr viel aus durch Ihre Handbewegungen, das habe ich mal gehört oder gelesen, ein klasse Bild mit schönen Farben und Details.
Schöne Grüsse
Eva

I never understood thosenails? Do you know the reason? Very good picture of the nails, with her blurred behind!
