Shinig hand:

As my digital body, focus on a part of it... particularly the wrist/hand and fingers. An image of light shining on the wrist, with the wrist itself glowing.

The bangles and such sparkle depending on how the light hits them.

Speaking of hands, I have experience learning hand language to encourage children's speech development. Hand language is a language—one way to express and convey thoughts, opinions, and feelings. While I don't usually think about the beauty of hands, I've decided to start paying attention to it.
