It stands out nicely against the sky. The hand looks a tad over exposed though, was it taken in full sunlight?

Yep, full sunlight from above and behind. The preview showed no blow outs.

That just means there's no white pixels.

It's obviously not way over, but the top of the thumb just looks to have lost some detail.

Re: Untitled.

Nice - doesn't look like too much exposure to me.

I might have taken the hand into frame just a touch more - but that's just me. Some perfect white fluffy clouds would have been nice too.

However, it's a really nice simple image.

How about 'Tom Thumb'?

Yeah, thats what I was thinking originally but went for just a stark blue background in the end. There were some nice clouds about too, just none small enough........I kind of wanted a small fluffy cloud top right but then I would have probably used the circular polariser, that would have possibly lost the reflection on the tomato. Conundrum eh!!

Tom Thumb
