I like the colors too (other than the hand) and also the geometry. I bet this stuff is hot too.

I've dealt you a hot hand.

Thanks Ben.

Looks more like low-hanging, pepper pickin' peeping to me.

Peppers are hot.
And the saturations may be a bit hot too.
Hand looks a bit reddish on my monitor.
Maybe pull back the sat/vibrance just a tad?

Appreciate the suggestion. I was going to especially pull back the saturation on the tablecloth as I wasn't sure how obvious the "life imitating art" was.

Tablecloth! Man, you got me on this one Steve! I completely missed that. My eyes went right over it.

I'm going to desaturate slightly tonight and repost to emphasize.

I know that you're trying to play up the connection between the fingerlike peppers and the hand, but maybe a little more wrist/forearm? Seems awkwardly cropped to me.

Also, I'm sweating now. Thanks Steve!!

With desaturated tablecloth to emphasize that "Life Imitates Art".

The hand wasn't planned. Someone stuck their mitts in as I was photographing.

Curious if people feel that the hand energizes the photo?

For me, the only distraction are the nails. The polish is old, and the thumb nail looks like there's something on (or under) the tip.

My eye is drawn to it and away from the nice colors of the peppers.

Appreciate your comments, and yeah, pretty strange nail polish.

As a street photographer, my inclination is often to approach from a different perspective, Putting this photo aside for the moment, abnormalities can be more interesting than perfection.
