Hands

Hands are those very useful things at the ends of your arms.

I have always been fascinated with hands as a photo subject because they give you an insight on the persons life story: how old they are, where they come from, what they do, what their living situation looks like. Our human hands are truly unique. The appearance of your hands can reveal whether you perform extremely gentle and precise actions such as playing the violin, or heavy labor, such as digging. Only we can grasp, hold, move, and manipulate objects with them. We use our hands to feel whether something is rough or smooth, hot or cold, sharp or dull.

Now take a moment to hold them out in front of you. Look at them. They are the only two you will ever have.
