Hands, Arms and Legs

Not sure of what today's photograph should be, I shot a few pictures throughout the day of pretty standard and boring things.  My hope was that one of the pictures would suffice.  None of them were good enough.  So I resorted to an "abstract day" of sorts, grabbing a model and shooting the contours that are created when legs are pressed against arms, fingers against legs, and hands against wrists.  Many say that the human body is the most beautiful subject to photograph.  Maybe it is.  I haven't photographed everything in the universe, so I'm in no place to make such a statement...but it definitely can be an interesting thing to shoot.

 In Rest

Fingers rest upon two knees.

Bent Legs and Draped Arms

Much like the title suggests, the subject's legs were bent and their arms were draped over them when this photograph was taken.  The result reminds me of dunes or a river and it's tributary.

Negative Space

What looks like a lot of negative space is actually the leg of the model.  The finger tips seem to blend right into the leg.

Self Portrait Series - Fingers

Here is the next photo for my self portrait series.  It is a finger.  Or fingers.  We shall see if I decide to do one photo per finger.  If so, then this is the photo for my left middle finger.  Remember that.

G Chord

One of the things my fingers find themselves doing frequently is grasping guitar necks, positioning themselves on frets, and plucking or strumming the strings.
