Tiki Central - A Show of Hands

Pages: 1 2 56 replies

Tiki Oasis 08 was such a BLAST!!

It was so cool meeting so many of you folks face to face that I've only known online...I wished that I could have met many more of you. There was just a ton of crazy people there...man, what a gathering of TC.

Everyone was so running around taking photographs of everything that I thought I would just focus on hands. Hands tell a lot about a person I think. Anyways, I had sooo many "Show of Hands" photo opportunities with my camera in my pocket, but with all of my talking and mingling and stuffs, I spaced out getting some great shots of some really, really cool folks....so if you were lucky enough to make it to Oasis this year, and for those of you who just wished you had made it to Oasis this year, would you mind posting a shot of your paws? It would be mucho appreciated. Let's get a "Show of Hands" going! It will be kind of like a big TC wave I guess :) ...could be fun...

You need to re-title this thread "Hands across Oasis"
Nice original idea. Thanks.

H

What !!! no tongue pictures? Oops I forgot it is in another thread.
Babs, what I l like about your concept is the fact that these people were able to express themselves with the objects they picked in their pictures and by the way they posed. Your pictures tell a lot of stories.
Kate, nice butt.

Thanks, Hilda. Apparently, I'm even more stupid when I'm hung over than when I'm drunk. :blush:

H

No! I am serious, aesthetically speaking it is true and it is a good picture even if you were drunk.

that was a lovely montage! brilliant ~ Hula Hands tell stories.. so do Tiki Hands. thanks again.

B

Great thread, Sir Babalu! You deserve a great big hand! (groaaaaaannn!)

P

i, also thought it was a great idea, rick. thanks for including me.

I'm so pissed I couldn't make it, but browsing all the pics of the drunken reprobates that did....."The Oscar for Best Pictures goes to.......'BABS'!!!!!". 'Hands down' winner for photojournalist and all around good-guy, Babs...nice work!

R

Babalu! How the hell did I miss you at Oasis?!

I mean seriously!

Ah well, glad to see ya had a blast too! :D

and nice montage of hands!

B

Great idea!!!

MAhalos for sharing

these pics will come in HANDY some day!
thanks BABs!

radd idea babs, cool stuff!

T

All the things we do with those hands and fingers and yet we still focus picture taking on the face.

Great study of the things that most separate us from the other Apes.

Thanks!

H

Couldn't make Oasis but I figured this thread was for hands in general, not just Oasis attendees, so I was prompted to submit a pic. Only one hand visible because the other hand took the picture.

Joking aside, great idea for a thread, Babalu. Good to see the hands that create the things we love to see and hold and good to see the hands that love to hold the things other hands love to create.

You sir, have a most unusual visual perspective.
Good idea. Good execution.

SEX PISTOLS LYRICS
"You Need Hands"

You need hands to hold someone you care for....
When you fear...nobody wants to know you
You need hands to brush away the tears....

When you hold the brand new baby
You need tender hands to guide them all the way
You need hands to thank the Lord for living....
And forgiving us this day....

You need hands to show the world you're happy
And you need hands when you have to stop the bus....
But the hands that we love so dear
Are the hands that we love to hear
Are the hands that You give to us.....
Everybody holds the hands that You give to us...
