Strong vibes here Mike that make for another excellent entry. I am however a little perplexed by the pinkish object above the arm. Perhaps I'm being a little slow today which is a sunny Sunday afternoon.

That's great. I love the lighting.
Hey seabrock, Thanks buddy! A bit stark with the lighting on this one in hopes that it would give me a good foundation to bring out in PS.

Ahhh, but you did say pinkish! It must be a woman’s silk scarf. Yea, that's what it is! hehe. I think long blond hair would have been too creepy

Mike,
Lighting and PP is superb, as usual.
If I read your meaning correctly, it's a bit sad. (??)
Hope it's not a fresh wound.
Regards, Carrol
Carrol, I'm glad you came by. You read it correctly my friend. "Sad" was one of every emotion I met face to face almost two years ago. Now I just take advantage of the past and share it with you guys! Thanks so much!

Wow...superbly stunning work. Too many good things to say about this one, so I'll just leave it at "wow"
Thanks very much Jon! I know it's a little on the edge. I'm glad you like it. Thank you for the input.
I looked at the thumbnails and thought that must be a 'Mike' shot, each week you produce superb quality work. But its not just the quality its the thought process behind them that makes your shots exceptional.
I will say good luck, but i doubt you need it,as this surely is a finalist.
Take care

Simple superb shot. The title together with the image of wanting to hold on that come so strongly from the shot, captures obsession exquisitely. Each and every week your shots stand out as fantastic. Once again exceptional work.
Wow!!
When I see an entry like this, I'm left thinking why bother even to submit something. The lighting is perfect, the creativity is outstanding. I really like the detail, the dirty arm looks like you've been forced to toil away at some difficult task. The blurred scarf implies someone fleeing. Awesome work!

Only a bleeding heart can be responsible for such an inspiration, Mike!
Congratulations on another exquisite work of art.
Did you intentionally overexpose the top of the hand? It helps conveying the feeling of pain…

Thanks for recognizing the elements I was trying to put forth Nick. It can be hard to communicate that sometimes.
Nick, I hope you continue to submit your work. I always look forward to your entries. They have always inspired me. Thank you!
