I like this idea! Can I offer a few suggestions? First of all, the frame needs to be straight...it's tipping to the left. I wouldn't crop off the fingers of the right hand...I'd use both hands to frame the frame. You might also adjust the lighting so that the whole frame is highlighted. I like the sepia tone, and think you'll have a super entry with just a bit of tweaking!

Remember...advice is free here, so take it for what it's worth.

Thanks Philly, appreciate your taking the time to help out, all very good suggestions. I have a few other additions that I'd like to try out as well, so I am planing to reshoot sometime tonight. Hopefully I'll be able to hold the frame straight and keep my fingers this time!

Cheers,
Jason

Nice to see your work again Jason. You always have such creativity. The hands add so much strength to this image. The lighting on the heart is just right. Beautiful color.

Jason,

I agree with what has been said above but wonder what it might look like in color. Or maybe just the hart in color. Just a thought.

Good idea Karen, I'll give that a shot. Last nights reshoot didn't turn out so well, so I'm hoping to shoot again tonight, we'll see if it works.

Cheers!

Nice capture Jason. I agree with an earlier comment that showing all of the hands would be better - maybe one could be of the opposite gender? Just a thought...
