Held From Behind

Another of these hand photos.

This one I didn’t use for the other shares as I felt it didn’t offer enough for the first four, and the fifth I liked more. Still do, really. However, I still like this one, in terms of texture and tone. It also has a soft, clear look, and I feel it’s expressive enough in terms of conveying through form.

This is my submission into the three hundred-and-thirty-eighth Lens-Artists Photo Challenge. The theme for this one is “Life’s Changes“.

Photography has been a big part of my life, and as I care less about trying to get the “cool” and more about trying to experiment more and trying to find “good”, I’m doing stuff I’ve wanted to do or done very lightly for a long time. I’m exploring more things I’ve been interested in for years, though as my interest in photography has dropped a lot, it’s possible I’ll drop it entirely as my life changes.

The host of the Lens-Artists challenges cycles weekly between the following people:

Tina

Patti

Ann-Christine aka Leya

John Steiner

Sofia Alves

Anne Sandler

Egídio

Ritva

This one is curated by Anne. The next one is curated by Ritva.

I recommend joining the community and participating in the challenges. They’re pretty straightforward, allow room for interpretation, and provide a good way to think about photography in general. If not, however, then at the very least you should check out what others submit to the challenges.

I hope you enjoy.

    I’d hate to see you drop photography SH, you’re one of the best I know at expressing a feeling through an image. This week is no exception!

    I’m sure if you do drop it you will pick it up again, I think it is something we all do at some stage.

    This is a powerful photo – and I agree with the others – I do hope you will stay with us in photography! I have had several down periods where I let my other interests take over – but I always come back… Tina says it right –
