Sorry about the quality of this one. It's the best I could get out of it, but thought it was still worth posting. For anyone who has never been fishing, the hands are baiting a hook with this minnow

It is a clear B/W image Doug - you could enter it in the b/W contest. He has big hands.

It looks good to me Doug. I was hoping that wasn't the one he caught. It was either very small or he had very large hands.
Your good eye has been around for a while.

Great black and white, looks like those hands have baited a lot of hooks.

So tell me, Doug...do you just walk up to people and ask for a shot or ten? Maybe it's the swastika tattoo on my forehead, but many people around here don't seem to like getting their picture taken by a stranger. Maybe it's the difference between the 50's and 2013 and the paranoia they feel because of my toothless smile.

This is a very unique and I'll say uncommon shot here on Caedes. I can't remember ever seeing anything like it. A quality B//W which is completely unfair because you've been using B/W since I was in grade school.

I accept for apology. 37 more and we're even.

The quality is really quite good considering all the transferring and a very interesting image.

I'd say you did well with the editing part, Doug. I like the detail on the hands as well. One has to have steady hands to bait a fish hook. Nicely done.

Those hands look like they have seen their share of hard work. An interesting capture and subject Doug. I like the lighting in the photo.
