Although well executed, I really find no real meaning or connection with this image. It's just a hand with blood on it. Perhaps a different title or maybe something else within the frame might add interest or something to relate it to. Otherwise, it's fairly mundane.
On the technical side, I feel there is a bit too much empty space at the top. Also the series of tiny black dots find there way to the front and become quite distracting.


Sorry..

Thanks for the feedback.


I understand that you can't find any real meaning just like I can't with Damien Hirsts calf or other examples of "Modern Art". I decided to have a go at creating mine though.
I was concerned with the white space you pointed out but decided to leave it in because of how I crop my images.
I am actually going to make a large print of it (after some spotting) and stick it in the guest bedroom. Should have them wondering lol.
By the way, it's not blood...just red paint.


Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it.

I think this will make a wonderful large print. I hope by "Spotting", you mean getting rid of those annoying black dots!(I count 8!)
I didn't think this was real blood. If I thought it was, my comments would not have been posted here!
I hope your guests sleep well! :-)...
I would upgrade my rating based on your explanation, but that time has expired. I never said I didn't like it! ;-)
