Black and white version of What do you see? I like both. This one visually, but the other one, the tones create the mood i'm trying to convey. Decided to submit both. Sorry!

I see my past, my presence, but not my future. What do you see?

These are my palms, i've way too many lines for a 23 year old. These lines almost represent what goes through my mind. But I wish I could understand them better. I wish I knew how to read palms. Do any of you know how? I wonder what these lines tell, of my past, of my present, and of my future.

To share this, it's almost quite, in fact very personal. It's although i'm letting away my deepest darkest secrets, my thoughts. My mind is never at rest. Even when I sleep, or take a 5 minute nap, I would definitely dream. And these dreams I do remember, although quite vaguely if not clear.

Sometimes I feel my body is stiff, I clench my teeth and I shut my eyes tight, because of m dreams. Not that they are nightmares, but because they seem so real, that at times I even know how to control my dreams, that I can even say to a person in the dream "I know this is a dream."
My mind and body has been very exhausted lately. I used to not care, and let it be. But now it worries me.

Thanks ~StuartPGardner for pointing out the back+white.. huhuhhu..

Very amazing hands and a great photo...
After reading the text I would suggest you to come to India.
Here are very skilled people who practice palmistry...
It is also done according to astrology...vedic astrology, called jyotish...

very personal piece indeed. i love the use of black and white here, and the lighting suggests a certain mystery - how uncertain you are, of the past, the present and the future through the lines on your palms. I love how the piece seems to me as though you're opening up to the world through your hands instead of your face, as though your whole life were resting in your hands. What do I see? I see thoughts, dreams, creativity; I sometimes wonder if one could be great without being thoughtful and without having a mind that is never at rest. I hope you find yourself and know your life and your palms soon.
And did I mention, lovely piece?

what a great unique pose...and powerful, human description...hmm yeah you have very defined palms, indeed. not that that needs to be a worrying thing...i don't think that thinking and maturing beyond your age is a bad thing. if that is representative of the goings on in your mind, then it makes me even more curious, as to what else is hidden in there...

Wow, this is beautiful. I think that the best way to read your palms is to look at them- the lines, the texture, the color, and the shape, size, and anything else- and remember the vividries of the past, enjoy the pleasantries of the present, and explore the possibilites of the future. Especially your future, because it's not written in stone- even though it may be written in your palms. I wouldn't ask someone to read your palms for you, as it is their perception and not yours, and the only person who can truly see what lies within you is you.

Well there's my two-cents... hope it made a thought, if not a difference. :D
