A very good idea launched a challenge that sparked the imagination of many of us. The Hand Model. The model of our hand, the image of our hand. Well, the originality of this theme determined the success.
Hand. A very important component of the human body. A philosopher, I no longer know who said that "the hand made the man."
Hand in art. Hard to reproduce in drawings and paintings. Only the great painters managed to restore the naturalness and beauty of the hands ... the others avoided painting them. In photography, it is easier. This challenge proposed by @soundwavesphoton invites us to show our hands!
My Hand Model
I have to put in context the images that will follow. Autumn, after picking grapes, I like to make, at home, a few tens of liters of wine. Basically, the grapes are crushed and then squeezed. From the juice obtained, by fermentation, it becomes wine. A natural wine, with no added sugar or chemicals. Our wine for the coming winter.
To make wine you need a few tools. I don't have them all because I make small quantities of wine. For this reason, I crushed grapes with bare hands. I used a kitchen strainer. I wanted to make red wine, cabernet. So I used very colorful grapes, the color that transferred to my hands.
My only tool is the juicer.
After the grapes are crushed, put in the juicer and squeeze the wine juice. It's called "must" in Romanian. This must is very sweet and fragrant. It is placed in large glass jars and after a few months the best wine results.
I think it is worth it for this wine, I forgot to say that it is even cheaper than the one in the shops, to color my hands. My hands are like the hands of an alien, I come to believe.
