Prompt:  Create an image featuring two detached human hands against a stark black background. Both hands have a blue tint, suggestive of a monochromatic palette, giving them an almost ethereal or ghostly appearance. The left hand in the frame is oriented with the palm facing down and fingers loosely extended, while the right hand is turned with the palm visible and fingers curled except for the index finger which extends out. Thin white strings appear to be attached to each fingertip, extending upwards out of frame, creating the illusion that the hands are marionette-like, hanging limply as if controlled by an unseen puppeteer. The lighting is such that it casts subtle shadows on the hands, enhancing the three-dimensional effect and providing a sense of depth and texture, with the light source coming from above, giving a slight glow to the edges of the hands. The overall atmosphere of the image is haunting and surreal, an evocative blend of reality and fantasy.
