“Hand: Bones” is a most evocative photograph. The technique is beyond my understanding, but the image brings an emotional reaction and the composition brings satisfaction.

That “Quote of the Day” will always be a favorite of mine. Wilde is right, artists see out into the world with eyes that reflect back into their own minds and make those unique pictures.
