Hands

Photograph very well balanced in tones and colours, reminiscent of a 17th century painting; beautiful light and great rendering of the dress, very engaging in the gesture of prayer. At the same time poetic and evocative image, the figure, which is not represented, still poses itself to the imagination aroused by the soft folds of the dress.

Very impressive image, clever use of lighting; I really like the partial desaturation that contributes to the ancient flavor. Congratulations nice work! capable of giving a lot of emotion to the observer. The idea of applying smokiness that enriches the composition and creates an atmosphere of times gone by is brilliant: candle? chimney? ...

Very impressive image, clever use of lighting; I really like the partial desaturation that contributes to the antique flavor. Congratulations beautiful work! capable of giving a lot of emotion to the observer. The attitude of the hands, as well as being very "plastic" suggests the intensity of the effort required by the work.

Very strong image both in tone and in the richness of detail, plastic and descriptive light, evocative of an ancient and very romantic environment; the reference to reading and the culture of the glasses resting on the ancient text is also nice, nice work!

Beautiful composition with a minimalist flavor, which highlights the captive hand which expresses loneliness and suffering through its position of abandonment, the horizontal cut produced by the red is beautiful which once again recalls the situation of captivity and attracts attention; the only thing I would suggest, at least in my personal opinion, is that the wedding ring is a bit disturbing, being too bright, if the image was mine, I would have removed it or at least made it darker: Congratulations for deserved first place.
