oooh, this is nice, the colours, the personal touch...
That's beautiful!
I always wanted to do this, but I missed it in Dubai :(
Lovely colours and tones in this shot!
just beautiful. i think that this is my favorite photo from you. i love that it captures this moment, this action in time.
Henna! I took a course in Henna art, forgotten now! :P
Very nice. These tattoos last quite a while don't they?
Good shot ... is that your thumb or was someone happy to see you ...
Great shot! I love the colors.
This is a beautiful interpretation/take on the theme. Happy weekend.
I was looking forward to seeing the various ways this theme would be done...I like this very much...
I want to try henna painting. It would be fun.
I have never tried henna painting.
Nice photo!
Henna painting sounds fascinating to me!
i always get a henna tat every year back in the phils during summer time but now that i'm here in SLC, that tradition is gone... :(
anyways, nice pick for this week's theme. mine's up HERE. check it out if you have time. :)
'Hand'some is as 'Hand'some does... nice shot.
Ooo! I had this done at a friend's wedding, a couple of years ago! How beautiful and what great fun!
Trying to reverse a personal trend, I'm "celebrating" over at my place - hope you'll stop by…

I love the colors of your photo. They made the photo much more interesting.

Nice choice of the theme. happy weekend.
Mine is here: My hands is here
i've tried to have a henna in my hands too. its the kind of tatoo that could be washed of in just 2 weeks of so.
I was here yesterday and saw your photo but didn't want to leave a comment 'til I posted my hunt photos today.
Terrific, as I said in yesterday's comment for 55.
I'll give you a hand [applause] for posting such a great photo grouping for the theme this week.
I have added four different hands for my entry. If you have time today, stop by and say 'howdy'!!! Happy Saturday to you.
Perfect for the theme! These hands are busy painting.
Cool. But what is being painted there?
Have a great weekend!
This is certainly a nice photo. Here's mine http://www.mirasblog.com/2009/03/photo-hunt-12-hands.html
henna painting - I love the beautiful designs and delicate lines. Great photo. Judith
Very interesting. What are all the papers? Is the design on the paper to the right of the artist the one being put on the hand? Do they do this freehand? I would like to see the finished result. Have never seen this in person.

Really like this seems very personal !
Oh, that's nice - Henna Tattoo! I'd love to do that one day.
Very good photo-- the color is amazing and the texture is great!
My Photo Hunt is up! I hope you get a chance to visit me, too.

Happy weekend!
Very nice photo you have. I have always admired the intricacies of the henna tattoo being done on Indian women. Very detailed and lovely.
Nice take on the theme. I've tried henna once before in Zanzibar but not on my hand but on my ankle. It was fun. :)
That's quite a piece of art - henna painting.
Love it! Great colors and great take on the theme.
I love watching henna painting - it's so gorgeous! :)
Great choice for the post. I like the fact that you can't see any faces.
Really nice shot and choice for this week's theme!
I love the colors :)
Mine is up too!
Have a great weekend :)
Anna
Henna - yeah
Very nice image, so gentle. I love the strong colors.
busy hands
Pretty! Love the colors. I just joined in this week.
da contrast of this pic is really good :)
Very nice shot...
A beautiful capture. Henna art is beautiful, except when it's done on a kids hand and getting them to hold still at least till it dries up :P
