oh.... I love this. Thank you.
Mr. Mark (70 months ago | reply)
thank you too.
I've been wanting to do this for a while, then when I recently went back home to Montreal my dad was showing me some old photos, and we came across this recent one he took of my grandmother. I love it.

ya, her hands have looked this way as long as I can remember.

nice shot, but i would prefer to see it in bw...
Mr. Mark (70 months ago | reply)
ya, I tried that, but some of details that I thought were important are lost in bw. I did desaturate it a little though.

Very nice. I would like to see more of the hands of the Caribana girls too.
Mr. Mark (70 months ago | reply)
lol, you're right! I guess I cropped them out didn't I?
It was either that or the feet shot, eh?
CharlesUibel (70 months ago | reply)
I'll take anything you have on the Caribana girls

this pair of hands reminds me of my late great-grandmother. when she is still with us, i love to touch her hands, though its all wrinkled. the veins are all very obvious too, just like these...i miss her... :)
