fingers bending

Hello Honza!
Thanks for this message -

Yes...Adam is doing an outstanding job with the beautiful photos of  
his own hand, and then enlarging the symbols and then creating the  
animated GIFs...then I post the animation on the web.

You can view them starting on this web page:

ISWA Symbol Lessons
http://www.signwriting.org/lessons/iswa/

At the moment, Adam has completed Groups 1- 5, and is partially  
finished with Group 6. I will post five more in Group 6 today.

But there is still Groups 7-10 to finish, and then all the handshapes  
in the ISWA will be documented. Thank you, Adam, for this important  
work!

The three bent-finger photos that you attached, Honza, do look similar  
to each other and it is hard to see the difference, but the symbols  
are trying to show the difference between a five hand that has 1)  
spread fingers bent from the middle joint only  2) a relaxed spread  
cup  3) a bent spread cup...maybe seeing them from the side would help  
you...

Was that your question?

Val ;-)
