Please comment. Many thanks.

Very different. This one I hope is done in BW film because if it is the print in person would be absolutle knock down great.

Nice idea and a well excuted shot.

The contrast of the skins is such that it almost looks like a mask... Simply beautiful, Robert.

original, simple, striking; i suggest cropping up to just where the wrists begin.

very strong image.

I love everything about this photograph. It has a meaning... and technical perfection. The print must look awsome.

No print yet, but I'm sure it will be just fine.

Thanks all for your comments. There are a few more of Mario coming, including some 4x5 (assuming I don't bugger up the processing!)

I love this picture. Dark tones and definition are perfect!

I agree with Ben S about cropping to the wrists, it draws you right in to your models eyes.

A nice juxaposition.Like it.

I like the contrast you have created here.

This is a great shot. Don't change a thing.

Yes, this is wonderful!

Very well done. I love the contrast.

It is beautiful! "Le meilleur des 2 mondes"... as we say in French. (The best from both worlds), or something like this. Lovely picture!

Simply excellent!

innovative. weldone. regards. amir.

I think the current crop is perfect - it gives the hands as much attention as the face, and I think this balances the image. Great work.

I like how the hands treasure the face and the face has very good lighting.Very well done

Perfect!

Thank you, everyone. This is much more reaction than I expected!

Perfectly strong

How can the word contrast gain any more meaning than the one shown here? Everything looks just about perfect in this shot, light, composition, concept... Congrats! Alex

I love the idea.
