Interesting. Have you considered doing this in B&W? I do like the shine on the piano. It looks new, or well taken care of.

I like the B&W better. It's more focused on the composition than the color of the hand.

I agree with Suzie, the B/W is better.

I really like this shot, in B&W or the muted colours of the first shot. Its a unique perspective that works very well.

Love the B&W version - Pianos seem to be good subjects for B&W conversions.
