When David has no pretty models to photograph, he takes to photographing himself! Sad, isn't it?

 

Feedback appreciated!

the entire image looks cyan, making the skin tones look sickly and the money off color

Todd, Maybe you need to adjust your monitor. This is what my hand looks like.

I like this. Really good artistic image of a serious problem.

 

Alex

A ONE dollar bill was enough...!

Alex, Thanks a lot! Just a bit of fun but I realise it is a serious problem!

 

Michael, Surely not?

Maybe that is what your hand looks like but that is not what money looks like, on any monitor

Now here's a theme I can really sink my teeth into. You don't want to get me started :)

 

I like the way you didn't include the top of the bills. I like the obviously tightly clinched fist. The blood looks very realistic, what did you use? Blood? Admittely, your fist is a little pale :) You've got to go outside occassionally, you can not get a tan from strobe lights :) On closer inspection it looks like you may be a nail biter :) Me too! :) Maybe the bills are a little cyanotic due to the squeezing & bleeding :)

 

I wish it could have been my fist, then you would have had the added benefit of my surgical scar :)When people ask me what it looks like I say "A failed attempted suicide by an extremely ignorant person" :) I have to wonder if my new bone plate will set off the metal detectors at the airports???? Yikes! "Step this way & place your feet in the footprints on the floor, please".

 

Then......I could have added the unbelieveable story of the costs associated with my injury & all the different payments both myself & my insurance company made to 2 different sets of hospitals & doctors. One really deserved payment, the other, well...... they certainly did not! Corruption at it's finest, Healthcare costs in the USA :( Who would have ever dreamed a broken arm could cost so much & it's initial treatment be so screwed up? I should have known! If it can happen to me (I'm an RN & husband is an MD), it can happen to just about everyone. Really sad!

 

Rant, rant, rant! :0

 

Jayme, I am glad you got that off your chest.

 

A couple of things....

 

I don't bite my nails out of habit but find my teeth the best implement for trimming them.

 

To get the blood in this shot, I put some broken glass in my hand and squeezed. The result is quite good! You believe me don't you?

My sentiments exactly about the nail biting, why don't other people understand that? :) As for the glass in the hand.............Not! But it does look real!

Fake money, fake blood and a real HANDwork from you.

 

Els ;D

Els, It's only the hand that is fake! Well! Maybe not.

Well done - no matter how the money looks.

Thank you Rina. I like this one myself.
