Give Blood

Crossing lines :)
O rhesus negative , anyone can have my blood !!!! its very important!!!
hair??
this is not a finger
OH YES IT IS !!!! ITS my finger !!!
no, it's this art piece that has a picture of a pipe and under it is says "this is not a pipe" meaning it's just a picture of the pipe. Thus that is not a finger, it's a picture of a finger
wooowww...este es el macro mas impresionante que hamas haya visto.... y esa parte s fabulosa...
Cherry flavoured!

Brilliant - total fave. Something I look at fairly often, whenever I check my blood sugar, but never this close up. I may steal your idea !!

Ouch! My first thought was diabetes... runs in my family so when I saw this I though of checking blood sugar levels. Nicely shot, though!

Nobel thought and idea. I thought was you are testing for blood sugar level. So sharp that I could see all of your finger’s circular ridges

You know what's interesting? I can't give blood in the U.S. because I lived in Europe for more than 6 months during the mad cow scare. Apparently, my blood is tainted now. I guess if I lived in Europe, it'd be welcome again.

As for the picture, excellent shot!
As for the message, really really important and worthwhile!

@travelinjim:
Even more interesting: I do live in Europe (in the Netherlands) and I can't give blood either because I was in England for about 6 months during the mad cow scare. And I even was vegetarian during that time, but they can't make exceptions for that ...

EXCELLENT!

Great macro shot! As others have said it's a sight I see often being diabetic. It's a great thing to do, give blood, although I don't think mine would be accepted as I've had heart surgery (an artificial valve) and have to take warfarin every day.

Perfection, with a positive message also....and along with giving blood, get your Bone Marrow Typed.. many many people need marrow, it is the gift of life, as is blood.
