Description
I took this photo about 3 years ago for a project for my photography class on taking hand pictures! I really like this picture because of the amount of detail it shows.Model: Grandma/Grandpa
Photo: The photo is a scanned image. It was taken in black and white and developed by me.
Edited: It was edited in photoshop to give it the black and white feel back because the scanning made it a brownish color. Some dust was removed as well that scanned in.
Last year I edited the photo and framed it and gave it as a christmas present to my grandma/grandpa.
Enjoy!

This literally brought tears to my eyes. I love the meaning behind it and it is just awesome. I know how much my grandmother loved my grandfather and you can see how much she misses him.

love the concept and contrast however would have prefered grandmas hand to have the upper hand or more equality between the hands

Ah you are right, it might have looked better if she did have more equality in the picture!

Beautiful. I love how you took a pretty cliche'd topic and made it different. As in, you didn't just take any pair of hands, you took the ones of elderly lovers. I love the detail on the picture. Great photography skills
