Although, persuading a random stranger to hold a match for me couldn't possibly be that difficult, could it?<br /><br />Out of about 20 photos, only a few really showed the hand and how the light fell on it, the rest were way too dark.

It was a bit of a last-minute solution when I couldn't think of anything else. So a dark room and some matches it was.
