- Witnesses -

Witnesses of the time which passes, these hands saw ravelling generations, men and women, technological developments (when it is thought that these hands were going to wash the linen in commonplaces like laundrettes or rivers..instead of today they press on a button.), political régimes to ravel, social projections... that leaves me dreamer think of the courage which our old had... nowadays, one only thinks of complaining...
These hands belong to my grandmother, 90 years soon.

See you

Loic,
Wonderful shot. I would have liked to have seem just a tiny bit more depth of field so that her other hand was a little bit more in focus as well. Congrats! A good effort!

Hi Colonna,
This is beautiful, very nice picture.
Composition, lighting, contrast.. all are great.. Only for depth I join Mark..
but what I like most here is the idea, and the perfect presentation.. This position of hands already tells everything you wrote in the note..
Excellent!!!

Outstanding... very nice control of the DOF and I like how this is composed. Looks terrific in BW.

Nicely done Colonna.

Nice composition..the color, the perspective and focus...and your note is so right..thanks for sharing!

(It will be green 2morrow )

It's amazing how the hands can tell so much...
And she's 90?? Her hand don't look like they been around for that long. It's a very powerful, delicate and beautiful photo!
I really like it very much :-))))

Tout mon respect à ta Grand Mère Loic ... et prend bien soin de prendre ces mains dans les tiennes pour écouter le savoir qui s'en dégage ... très beau témoignage et merci pour le partage.
