How to send me your hand photographs - Part II

In this post I am going to describe the kind of photographs I need to read hands. In a previous post How to send me your hand prints and images I have mentioned that I need "at least 5-6 photos of each hand from different angles, including one which shows the back of the hand". The more the pictures, the easier it is me.


You also need to mention which hand you write with. This is very important. If you are ambidextrous, this also needs to be mentioned.

The photographs are for two purposes:

1) To see the shape of the hand and the placement and setting of the fingers.
2) To see the lines, including ridges and apexes.

What you can get from a hand reading:
From the first I can give an overview of the personality. Any major changes in personality over the years can also be discerned.

If I get to read the lines, the character analysis can be more specific than one  based on the shape of the hand.

Future trends (based on what the person is like currently) can also be read from the lines if all lines are visible in the photograph (including minor lines). Major events from the past can be told.

This can be of use to you in several ways. You can understand yourself better and get a better idea of your talents and capabilities. Character is destiny and if you rectify any trait which is not desirable, your future is liable to change.

It is also possible to do a compatibility analysis of two people. Compatibility is a complex subject, but there is research which has revealed that people of similar temperaments get along better. Even if you are already married, the character analysis via hand reading can help you adjust to each other better.

The photographs required for hand reading:
While taking a picture of your hand please hold your hands and fingers naturally. If there is stiffness you will get a wrong reading. To get it right you can practice by placing your hand face down on a table to see the natural position of the fingers. Or you can close your fingers over your palm tightly and then open the palm slowly to how the fingers fall. It is important to open the hand fully. Ensure that your thumb is visible.

However, do take one photograph of your hand with all the fingers close together (facing the camera) so that the relative length of your fingers is visible.

I am giving a few samples here so that you understand the different ways people hold their fingers.

.

In the first photo you can see that the fingers are more or less at an even distance from each other. In the second photograph the middle two fingers are closer together than the other fingers to each other. In the third photograph all the four fingers are close together. In some cases (not in the photo) the thumb is also held close to the fingers. Please note that in all these photos the complete hand is visible, including the thumb.

All of this will affect the reading so it is important that you hold your hands naturally. And as mentioned above, take one photo with your fingers close together with the thumb close to your palm, so that I get an idea of the relative length of the fingers and thumb.

When I read hands of celebrities it is fairly easy to get the correct position of their fingers as I check scores of photos when they are not conscious of the way they hold their hands.

In your case, I need photographs which are taken directly from the front as I will be working with only a few photos. At least 2-3 photographs of the full hand are required. The tips of the fingers need to be visible. Remember that the camera lens should be directly in front of the hand.

If you want your lines read then the photographs need to be of a high resolution. Here is an example of a the kind of quality I need. I have magnified a portion of a hand photograph to give you an idea as to the quality:

To check whether the photo you have is of the required quality, all you need to do is zoom into the photograph to see if the lines and ridges are clear. In the photograph above you can see the apexes clearly too. Unless a photograph is this clear the lines cannot be read properly. Here is an image from my camera handbook which talks of the close up setting. Note the icon. It will be in your camera if it is a digital camera.

In total I will need at least 5-6 photographs of each hand to be able to read the lines. I will make a list of the kind of photographs I need:

1) At least two photographs each of the complete right hand and left hand from the tips of the fingers to the bottom of the palm taken directly from the front. This means a total of 4 photographs, two of the right and two of the left. Remember the camera lens needs to be directly in the front of the hand.

2) Two more photographs each of the right and left hands (full) from different angles. Here are some examples. This means another four photographs

3) Close up photographs of the palm of both right and left hands from different angles. You can send as many as you think necessary, but at least 2-3 of each hand. One of them has to be directly from the front, as shown below.

One image of the back of both hands.

When you send me the images let me know three things:
1. Is your palm soft and on the harder/rough side?
2. Is your hand supple and flexible? For example, is it stiff or does  bend backwards a little? Does it bend backwards a lot? Use your judgment and let me know these aspects. It will help me in my reading.
3. Which hand do you write with? And even if it is your left hand, do you use your right hand too for other activities? In other words, are you ambidextrous or is it mainly one hand which you use?

About the photos, as I mentioned, the quality of these photographs has to be very good, of a high resolution, otherwise I cannot do the reading of the lines.

FOR THIS YOU WILL NEED AT LEAST A 5-6 MEGAPIXEL CAMERA. BUT IT IS BEST TO HAVE A HIGHER MEGAPIXEL. THE HIGHER THE BETTER.

AT TIMES HAND SCANS WORK WELL. IF YOU SEND HAND SCANS ALSO SEND ME A FEW PHOTOS EVEN IF THE PHOTOS ARE NOT AS CLEAR AS THE SCANS.

Here are some tips to keep in mind:

• If using a camera, use a close-up setting (look for closeup icon)
• Take Large Photos with Superfine quality (Check "Menu" of your camera). If you have a problem sending such large files try using Yousendit or send one photo per message.
• Turn off the flash if necessary
• Keep your hand still while the photo is being taken
• Best to take the photograph outdoors in natural light
• Avoid direct sunlight on the hand as it can cause a reflection
• Avoid taking the photograph on dull days or late evening
• Ensure that your hands are clean and dry
• Check the photographs on your computer before sending them. Compare them with the lines on your hand 
• Under no circumstances should you reduce the size of the file

You will need to follow the instructions given above and then send me your hand photographs. You can write to me (my email id is on the right side bar  of this page) to ask me how much it will cost you. I charge more for specific questions and take advance payment for all readings.

Please remember that I take hours to study a  hand, and therefore cannot do it for free. Even if it a character analysis, I spend a lot of time on the hand. It is not easy to decipher the relative length of fingers, their setting, the relative strength of the mounts. Even more difficult is actually merging the reading when signs seem to contradict each other. At times I mull on a hand for a day or two before I finally reach a conclusion. The time consuming nature of the work means that I cannot do it for free.

Payment methods:

1. The payment can be made via Paypal. Even if you do not have a Paypal account you can still pay via Paypal using your credit card. Paypal is a very safe and secure system. The Paypal icon is on the right sidebar of this page. You will be asked to pay in dollars. Just convert your own currency into dollars and put in the dollar amount.

2. The other alternative is via netbanking. Those who are interested can request me for the details.

Thanks and please do email me for any clarifications on this issue.
