Re: Year end PF gallery for 2016 available for viewing!

Thank you for the comment. In this series I’m not necessarily looking for a connection between the hand and the body. Part of this is that the hand might, or might not, belong to the same person. I may submit others from the series and see if they make more sense to you.

Mark Harris - Body Abstraction with Hand

In his comments on his gallery photograph, Mark writes: ". . . The source of the hand is deliberately not clear. I’d be interested in hearing how the PhotoForum members interpret this."

To me, there isn't any relationship between the hand and the body underneath it, and the two seem out of proportion -- which should not matter for an abstract except that in this case it does matter. So, after trying to put it all together, it loses interest for me.  Other abstract examples of hands near or on bodies seem to work better.

Well, Happy New Year  --  or whatever.
