My attempt to recreate Wildmans shot...

Is it just me, or do you have two right hand???
Very nice shot.

Very MC Escher with the 2 right (or in his case left) hands!! Love it, great interpretation of Wildman's shot....

Nice, not sure I could hold the camera that steady with one hand.

Well, that was a concern for a few shots. That little D40x with the 18-200VR was heavy at times. So I bumped the ISO up to 400 and selected continuous shooting mode. Firing off 5-6 frames at a pop increased the odds considerably of getting a good one while also allowing for faster shutter speeds to help reduce any shake.

Very nice shot.

Funny, I went back to look and it appears that way. However, my wedding ring is on my left hand, but as noted in the OP, I 'flipped' the image in Photoshop just so "Nikon" would read properly. That gives the impression of two right hands, but I still don't know why. My Right held the camera/Left hand held the disc. After flipping the image it sure does look like the same hand for both!


Thanks for the kind words. This was a fun and challenging shot to make.

cool shot. I always admired that shot but haven't had the nerve to try it. Or the lens. Great Job.

You did good! How many clicks does it take to get the shot? You found out

you have one mirrored hand which will make it look like the other hand......

Danny's pic is the same way, but two left hands....
