Dancing Hands
Oh one of my deepest loves is music; as soon as I saw the title I knew I wanted to do hands playing the piano. I have been playing as long as I can remember and I would have taken a picture of my own hands if I could have. These are my husbands. I feel proud of this because (again considering my lack of experience) if you can zoom right in you can see his fingerprints.

Hers's mine - taken today. Not easy holding my nuts and taking a photograph. I lost the light sadly otherwise I'd have tried more variations.

The Helping Hand.
We all need a helping once in a while, so I had to make this a pentax moment Lilly, as I quickly saw your theme and the story....Enjoy!
The child was frightened by the large waves and the vastness of the water. Her mother waded into the water and then coached her to come by offering the wee one her hand.....with a helping hand she did manage to wet her toes!
Camera model...Pentax K-m Focal Length 18.0mmm Expos Time .001 Aperture f/4.5

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.
