Tina Modotti

There is something about hands....I'm obsessed with them. It's usually one of the first things I notice about a person. Oddly enough, I am just now realizing that I've never photographed anyone's hands before. I can't believe that it never occurred to me. You can tell so much about a person by their hands. Tina Modotti has several photographs of hands, they were the first photos of hers that caught my eye. Definitely have to keep this in mind for my portrait assignment.
