Interesting subject. I love the complexity of hands . A crop off the bottom up to the wrist will guide your attention straight to the hand.

I agree with Lucy's suggestion. An excellent use of B/W, sublimating everything to texture and tone.

This works really well. I really like the lines and shapes. I would agree with the bottom crop suggestion and I might take a touch off the top to eliminate that dark corner, too. Very nicely done.

An excellent detail shot. Great textures and detail. And, the conversion accentuates those very well.
