What beautiful colors! I like the way that the hand gives a good perspective on its size -- I might have thought it was larger. Welcome to DPS navsalkarmv!

Welcome to DPS! An excellent first post. I like the contrast of colors here with the orange going against the green. Hope you have a great time here at DPS!
