Whats left on my hands after the "hands challenge"? :) This is one of them..:)

When i got bored so much trying the surrender to you, i took some shots unconciously :) Honestly i realized that i did all the serie in unconcious manner because on my previous shot, my looks not related with surrendering...mostly can be related with hate :) Thanks for your useful comments about it..

* Here i tried duotone in PS. After i converted it greyscale, chose the duotone.
Made the first ink black, second TRUMATCH 8-a3. Something brownish.

Mrh.Elif,
Üreten ellerimiz,tüketen ellerimiz.
İten de ellerimiz,yaklaştıran da..
Vuran da ellerimiz,okşayan da..
Alkışlayan da ellerimiz,gözyaşlarımızı örten de..
Duyguları toplayan ve duyguları dağıtan ellerimiz.
(İngilizcesi sana düşüyor Elif).
Puan sonsuz gülen yüz..
Slm.
Şeref

Hi Elif,
You've capture that expression very well and the use of sepia is very good to add impact on the mood. Very well done.

Beautifull handshot; the light and colouring is great.
Huub

Hi Elif,

This photo is one of great beauty, a photo with full of emotion. I think it was hard to make this photo but you did it very well, the softness and desaturation works perfect here. Fo me is this photo a favorite.
Have a wonderful week,

Johannes

Hi Elif,

Superb and excellent and great and...

Light, crop, sharp... everything is ok. But the most important, this photo speak, communicate.

regards,

ferran

Renkteki nefis yumuşaklık görüntünün naifliğiyle mükemmel örtüşüyor Elif.
En canalıcı nokta küpeler kanımca. Fotoğrafın karanlık kısmında çok güzel bir etki yaratmış.

Tüm yeşil puanlar sana:) bir yeşil puan da yorumu nedeniyle Şeref'e!

Selamlar

Hakan

very good. Very moody and full of emotion.
Regards.
Jacobo

Elif Hanım merhabalar... Fotoğrafınızda duygunun ifadesi çok başarılı bir şekilde yapılmış... Özellikle fotoğraftaki doğallık portreyi çok zenginleştirmekte... Seçtiğiniz tonlamanın da bu duygu üzerindeki etkisi kuşkusuz harika... Paylaşımınız için teşekkürler...

Express deep....

Mood is great set in duotone my dear friend.

* Kindly ask that what's the color key in CMYK for this kind of result? I'll appreciate for your feed back. Thanks!

Wong

Merhaba Elif...
Bence tam bir "Mood" türü fotograf... Belki elleri öne cikarmak istedin ama fotograf tümüyle cok güzel...ISIK ve kompozisyon gercekten harika...
Ellerine saglik..

Hi Elif,
resignation? disappointment? the best one would be "Regrets" as title for this photo imho. And... if it was me, I'd post this one to the challenge since this one is consistent. Face expression along with hands gestures complement each other showing the emotion (well, at least I see it like this :-D). You know, apart of the hands I like one seemingly unimportant (?) detail - the earrings. My first impression was "they distract". Second - they draw the head. Show how is placed. Help in photo reception. I like it! tfs

The human eye looks a picture from left to right. It seems to me, that here the main thing that is behind. Therefore I have turned a photo on 180 degrees. Has cut off fingers that there was an innuendo. Strong emotions always are well looked in b\w. At you very good work, and all changes are my experiments.

an excellent follow up post to your hands challenge entry Elif :)
i like the workshop version better, the b/w sets the mood well
and the tight crop works better for me in the shot

points added :)

Strong! Great emotive photograph Elif. As I said you are working your new camera quite well. The details here are excellent and I really like your pp treatments to this. Wonderful light Elif.

Love and Peace always
Kevin

Superb mood and very powerful image, Elif !


tfs and have a sunny weekend,
vlad

Merhab Elif hanım uzun zamandır treklense uğrama fırsatı bulamadım. Sizin fotografları özlemişim :)
Sizin fotograflarda mood çok güzel yansıtılıyor yani bakınca göz zevkinin ötesinde beyninde insanın bir imge oluyor bir şey çağışırtırıyor.. Tebrikler.

Very beautiful picture, Elif, full of emotions. I saw the workshop but I prefer this version for its larger crop & tones (the stuff about left to right only is valid for occidental because of our writing from left to right so it is the opposite for those that have writing from right to left which explains that cultural differences can really influence the interpretation of a picture). Very beautiful light and there seem to be sadness and despair in the gesture. Excellent!

Beautiful shot, Elif! Interesting to see the earrings, they create a nice counterbalance. Might have cropped a bit on the right. Great image treatment, very natural looking. Excellent!

Hi Elif,

Beautiful presentation
I liked the work here, perfect
Congratulations

Sérgio

I see you do great hands! This is so powerfully speaking of your state of mind (tired, bored, nervous, not-pleased)
Bebe

I love processing in Duotone. This is a great look. I love your lighting here. It adds a certain amount of depth and quiet beauty to the image. Very smooth composition. Love it, Elif. It's good to see you again:-)

Sorry, I'm out of points. I have been away for so long though, that I have to keep commenting.
